What might a backup cover beyond code history?

A Git clone can keep commits and branches. GitProtect documents backup coverage for additional records such as issues or pull requests, depending on the hosting platform and plan. Choose a saved backup version and confirm what was included before assuming those records will be restored. Customer databases and files uploaded through your app need their own backup plan.

How can you check a restore without disturbing the team?

Check that the plan supports the records and destination you need. For a GitHub restore, verify that the mapped destination is an existing private test organization you own and that the new repository name is unique there. Typing a name alone can send the restore to the source organization or your account. Typing an organization that does not exist can send it back to the source organization. Check visibility and permissions first, and keep notifications, invitations, webhooks and workflows out of the rehearsal. If you cannot confirm those boundaries, stay with the paper example. Restoring to a device brings back the repository without hosted records such as issues and pull requests. GitProtect’s DevOps pricing is organized around repository counts and feature tiers.

Could a fictional project recover its code and one review?

Draw a repository with a code branch and a pull request that has one review comment.

List what each copy must contain
Write the expected branch, pull request and comment. Mark which would need the host’s records as well as Git history.
Name a separate destination
On paper, write the existing private test organization you would verify in the destination mapping, then a unique repository name. Mark outgoing actions as excluded and write which records you would check.
