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:
- Project Name: Enter the name of your project.
- Location: Enter the location folder for your project.
- PHP Server: By default, the default PHP web server is selected.
  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.
- URI: Enter your Git repository URI.
- User: Enter your Git username.
- Password: Enter your Git password.

Click Next.
The Libraries dialog is displayed.

Select the libraries you wish to add to the project, and click Finish.
The new project will be created in your workspace and displayed in the PHP Explorer View.

Note:

If not already installed, selecting to install jQuery Library Support, ExtJS and Prototype will prompt a restart of Zend Studio.
