Connecting Git & Super
This is the first step to get started. This section covers how to set up the connection between Super and Git.
Required Permissions for Setup
To connect Super and Git, you must have the necessary permissions in both platforms.
- In Super: Permission to add or remove data sources depends on your team's settings. By default, only workspace admins or owners can set up a connection. However, a Super admin can enable a setting to allow all members to add and remove data sources.
- In Git: The user connecting the repository must have access to it.
Initial Git Connection
To begin, you need to connect your Git repository with Super.
In Super, click Data Sources in the left sidebar.

Large repositories may have longer initial sync times

How Super Indexes Your Git Repositories
What We Sync
Super focuses on documentation and readable content from your Git repositories.
At this time, Super supports markdown files only. Other file types are not indexed.
Refresh Rate
Git repositories are synced every few hours. New updates will appear in Super within that timeframe.
Access Control
Super respects Git's privacy settings by mirroring your existing permissions. Anyone in your Super organization can search and access content from public Git's private or public repositories that are connected.
