To use source control effectively, use the following guidelines as best practices.
Adhere to the following guidelines as you
develop and work with assets:
Guidelines for managing dependencies
Use the following guidelines to manage assets with dependencies:
Create connections and runtime environments before you pull
assets from the repository.
When required connections and runtime environments exist in the
target organization, you can run tasks immediately after you
pull them from the repository.
Ensure that reusable assets such as mappings and components are
present in the repository before you use them.
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
does not allow you to save an asset such as a
mapping
task when the dependent
mapping does not exist in the organization.
Guidelines for checking in and checking out assets
Use the following guidelines when you check in and check out assets:
When you rename or move an asset, check out the asset's
first-level dependent assets and include them in the same
check-in.
For example, if you want to rename a mapping that a
mapping
task uses, and the
mapping
task is used in a
taskflow, check out the mapping and the
mapping
task. You don't need to
check out the taskflow. After you rename the mapping, check in
the mapping and the
mapping
task in one check-in
action.
Enter comments when you check in assets.
When you check in assets, you might enter a release tag name in
the
Summary
field and enter more
descriptive comments in the
Description
field. When you do this, the
Git Summary
field in
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
shows the release tag that is associated with
the asset.
When you check in multiple assets at one time, limit the number
of assets to 1000 or fewer.
Checking in more than 1000 assets at one time can degrade
performance between
