Description

Master Language

The language in which all documentation and dictionary elements texts will be created. Follows SAP sy-langu values.

Starting Folder

The Git repository folder that defines the root folder where deserialization starts.

Folder Logic

abapGit follows two folder logics: PREFIX and FULL

PREFIX

A package name must contain its parent package name as a prefix. Examples:

Valid prefix:

• ZFOO
  • ZFOO_BAR
    • ZFOO_BAR_QUX

will give folder structure /foo/bar/qux/

Invalid prefix:

• ZFOO
  • ZBAR

FULL

Any package name is accepted

• ZSOMETHING
  • ZHELLO

will give folder structure /zsomething/zhello/

Ignore

Files which abapGit will not download into your ABAP system.
