Git access
Connect to your Git repositories directly from Redmine
Every hosted repository exposes a secure URL inside your Redmine project settings. Follow our quick guide to copy the URL, paste it into TortoiseGit, and authenticate with the credentials you already use for your Redmine account.
Find the repository URL
Open your Redmine project, switch to the Repositories tab, and you will see the Git URL next to every configured repository. If the URL is hidden, click Edit on the repository entry to reveal it.
The URL typically starts with https:// and points to a hosted endpoint such as redminedemo.saas-secure.com/git/yourproject. Copy it to your clipboard before continuing with your Git client.
Clone with TortoiseGit
Right click inside Windows Explorer, choose TortoiseGit > Clone, paste the repository URL from Redmine, and set your desired local folder. The client will prompt you for the same username and password you use for your Redmine account.
If SSL is enabled, you can also use https URLs. Once authenticated, TortoiseGit synchronizes and pulls the repository contents into the directory you specified.
Windows client hints
- Use the same Redmine credentials when prompted for authentication
- If you receive a 500 error, check your repository permission inside Redmine
- HTTPS access requires the SSL toggle to be on in your hosting plan
