Committing to Git Repositories

There are two scenarios in which you commit Forward Engineering (FE) scripts to a Git repository:

  • Scenario 1: Committing new or full FE scripts:

    • Use the Forward Engineer Schema Generation Wizard to commit a physical database schema or FE script from a Mart Model.

    To avoid script files from being overwritten, ensure that you use unique file names.

  • Scenario 2: Committing alter scripts:

    • Use the Forward Engineer Alter Script Schema Generation Wizard to commit an alter script after you make changes to a Mart Model. You can commit an alter script in two ways:

    • Commit and append an alter script to an existing script file
    • Commit and create a new alter script file in the Git repository

    For more information, refer to the Scenario 2: Committing Alter Scripts topic.
