Getting Started

Get up and running with GitDot in minutes.

Prerequisites​

  • A GitHub or GitLab account
  • At least one organization or group with repositories

Step 1: Sign In​

  1. Visit beta.gitdot.microwiseai.com
  2. Click Login with GitHub or Login with GitLab
  3. Authorize GitDot to access your repositories

GitDot requests read-only access to view your repositories and organizations.

Step 2: Select Organization​

After signing in:

  1. Go to the Repositories page
  2. Select My Organizations tab
  3. Choose an organization from the dropdown

Or enter an organization name directly in the Direct Input tab.

Step 3: View Structure​

GitDot will fetch your repositories and display them in a tree structure:

your-org/
├── api/
│   ├── gateway
│   └── users
├── core/
│   ├── auth
│   └── database
└── web/
    └── dashboard

Step 4: Rename Repositories (Optional)​

To take advantage of GitDot's hierarchy, rename your repositories using dot notation:

On GitHub​

  1. Go to repository Settings
  2. Change repository name from auth-service to auth.service
  3. Update any references to the old name

On GitLab​

  1. Go to Settings → General
  2. Change Project name and Path
  3. GitLab will set up redirects automatically
