Source Control

In Lingo, source control is the practice of managing file changes by synchronizing them with a copy of your project files on a server.

Lingo does not use a proprietary source control system within the application. Instead, Lingo lets you connect (or "bind") your project to any of these third-party source control providers: Git, Perforce Helix Core, Subversion, and Team Foundation Server.

Important If you are using source control, do not include your local termbase (.litdb3) and translation memory (.db) files in your project folder. These files do not function correctly when used with source control, and can cause conflicts. Instead, you should use a server termbase or translation memory. This will allow other users to have access to the terms in the database while avoiding possible conficts.
