Are there any recommended methods to integrate git with colab?
For example, is it possible to work off code from google source repositories or the likes?
Neither google drive nor cloud storage can be used for git functionality.
So I was wondering if there is a way to still do it?

You can clone a GitHub repository into your Colab environment in the same way as you would in your local machine, using git clone . Once the repository is cloned, refresh the file-explorer to browse through its contents. Then you can simply read the files as you would in your local machine.
STEP 1: Download and install Google Drive for desktop and ensure Git is installed on your system. STEP 2: Open a command-line interface and create a Git repository for your project. STEP 3: From inside the project folder, create a 'bare' Git clone of the repository on Google Drive. STEP 4: Configure a Git remote.
If you want to clone a private repository, the quickest way would be to create a personal access token and select only privileges that your application needs. Then clone command for GitHub would look like:
!git clone https://[email protected]/username/repository.git If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
