Using Git with Mapbase

Mapbase was specifically designed to be merged into forks of Source 2013 by using Git. This lets you merge Mapbase into an existing mod or update an existing mod already running on Mapbase quickly and easily.

What is Git?

Git is a "version control" system which keeps track of files (usually code) and changes to those files. It can even merge files with different changes together.

Setups of Git usually involve two different repositories: A "local" repository (the one on your computer) and a "remote" repository (the one on a server or website). GitHub is used as a website to store and handle remote repositories.

How can I use Git to implement or update Mapbase?

You need to pull from the Mapbase remote.
