This post dates back to 2016 and is migrated from an older blog.

Make a change to a file and you should see it turn blue specifying that changes have been made but not committed.įor more info on version control in android studio see this video and the documentation on the intellij website.Today I will share my experience about creating a Git repository for a new Android Studio project. If you see git commit and git pull options then you are now using version control and bitbucket as your remote repo. git folder hidden in the project root (or something in that ball park.maybe it's really not in the project root). If you see this that means android studio does not see the. Once that is done and the project is open make sure you go to VCS and you should not see 'Enable Version Control Integration'. Open Android Studio and choose File->Open and browse to the folder you just pulled data to and that open the android project. When pulling is complete you should have all the files that's on the head of that branch (master if not specified) which in most cases is an android project.

Once clowning is complete you should hit the pull button to pull down the latest changes picking the appropriate branch you want to pull from. Once you've chosen the repo you want to clone, pick the destination folder and if you want to bookmark the project or not and press 'clone'. You can also copy an paste the link from the project home on bitbucket as well. There will be the normal browse button and also a button button that looks like a globe allowing you to browse the hosted projects linked to your BitBucket account. Once you've installed SourceTree and walked through the first boot setup process giving SourceTree your credentials you click Clone/New and a dialog will pop up.

You will have no problems with BitBucket using source tree since both are made by Atlassian. If you are still having problems (like I was recently) even though you've tried the plugin and you feel uncomfortable or not knowledgeable about initializing git for your project by hand via terminal you can use SourceTree.
