How to add local Git server account in Xcode 9?

Question

We all know that Xcode 9 provide's so many support of Github such as clone, commit, pull, push etc. There is an option on Xcode->preferences to add GitHub account. Here is a screenshot below.

I can add a my Remote(public) GitHub account. We have a private Git server in our office and we access it using this ip (192.168.1.15), but I can not add this Git server account on my Xcode. I already add my personal public GitHub account(shamiul110107) shown in screen bellow.

My question is that how can I add my private Git server account in Xcode 9?

Thanks in advance.

In previous versions of Xcode , ie. prior to Xcode9 you can add your local Git Server account. From Xcode9 that feature has been removed and Github has been integrated with Xcode which allows you to have a control over your Github repositories within Xcode9. However you can still use your Git Server from office without adding an account to Xcode.

1. Open Xcode
2. Source Control -> Clone
3. add the repository URL from your local Git Server (Here I'm using a git Repository from GitHub without adding any account to my Xcode)
4. Press Clone and Select the save location
5. The project will create a local repository in your PC
6. You can add changes and commit and then push

while pushing to the local Git Server ,user credentials is required , which in your case is your username and password for your local Git Server account.
