Creating a New Project from Git

Git is a distributed revision control system with an emphasis on speed. Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with complete history and full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server.

Zend Studio allows you to create a new PHP project by importing an existing GitHub project.

Instructions on how to complete a procedure

To create a new Git project in Zend Studio:

In the menu-bar, go to File | New | PHP Project from Git.
The New PHP Project from Git wizard is displayed.

Enter the following information:

  To select a different server, deselect the check-box, and click the drop-down menu to select an existing server for deploying the new server project, or click Add Server to create a new server. For information on adding new servers, see Managing PHP Servers.

Click Finish.
The new project will be created in your workspace and displayed in the PHP Explorer View.
