Using Full Remote Mode with Version Control Systems

See Also 

The IDE offers three modes of remote development described in C/C++ Remote Development Modes.

When you use full remote development, the source files reside on the remote host. The IDE enables you to use Git, Mercurial, and Subversion version control systems (VCS) in full remote mode on the remote source files.

After you configure the IDE for your remote projects, you can configure the VCS settings for the remote projects.

To specify VCS settings for full remote projects:

  1. In the IDE menu bar, choose Tools > Options (NetBeans > Preferences on OS X) to display the Options dialog.
  2. Select the Team category and then click the Versioning tab.
  3. In the Versioning Systems list, select the remote VCS you want to work with.
  4. Click OK.
  5. Work with your projects with the VCS just the same as local projects.

To set colors used in the IDE for VCS information highlighting:

  1. In the IDE menu bar, choose Tools > Options (NetBeans > Preferences on OS X) to display the Options dialog.
  2. Select the Fonts & Colors category and then click the Versioning tab.
  3. In the Versioning Systems list, select the remote VCS you want to work with.
  4. Select the highlighting category, choose colors as you like, then click OK.
