Working with Git by using Rational® Integration Tester

After you have set up the Git repositories for your test project assets, you can use the IBM® Rational® Integration Tester to perform operations to load your project, pull the test assets from the remote repository, make changes, commit changes to the remote repository, or reload your project test assets from the remote repository ignoring the uncommitted changes in your local repository. By using the Rational® Integration Tester UI, you can visually ascertain the connectivity to the repository and the status of the files on both the remote and local repositories.
