Packages
abapGit repositories do not store any SAP package names. The top (or root) SAP package for a repository is defined when creating a repository in your system ("New Online" or "New Offline"). You have two options to provide the SAP package:
- Let abapGit create the package automatically
- Create the package manually
If the repository contains sub packages, abapGit will create them automatically with the same settings as the top SAP package (see also Folder Logic).
Automatic Creation of Package
Just enter the name of the SAP package in the "New Online" or "New Offline" dialogs. The package does not have to exist. Then select "Clone Online Repo" or "Create Offline Repo".
Manually Creation of Package
You can use an existing SAP package, create the package beforehand in transaction SE80, or create the package in the "New Online" or "New Offline" dialogs.
Transports
Based on the type of SAP package you use, abapGit will determine what type of transport will be required. When pulling or uninstalling the repo, abapGit will then prompt for a corresponding transport request.
The following table lays out if abapGit can automatically create the package and how it determines the type of transport.
