Integration with application git repo to get code and commit changes
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many applications are managed in Git repositories with all the source code needed, documentation and other artifacts needed to build, package and deploy the application. These git repositories are the source of truth of the application.
Now move2kube requires to have a local instance of that code or a zip (if you are using the UI) to analyze, traslate and transform the application. It could be a great feature that move2kube uses directly the git repository of the application to:
- checkout the code
- execute the actions locally, including the transformations
- Optionally push the changes into the original source code (in the same branch, in other, in a specific folder, ...)
After you use the application, not only have a transformed version to be deployed in your kubernetes cluster, also you have the new code updated to be used in the next iterations of the application. Otherwise you have to commit the resources manually. As developer I am getting the new resources automatically and integrated in my git repo to be used for the next steps of the migration process.
Describe the solution you'd like
Integrate automatically the new changes of the application into the original git repository to advance in the migration project. Avoid to have everything locally and avoid loss something.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Additional context
Thanks for creating the issue. This is an feature that we have seen often. We have tried to stay away from it till now since git might use many different types of authentication.
But thinking about it again, using the current local git authentication might help get around the authentication issue.
The pushing of new artifacts to a new branch is also something that can be done.
Once the team has some cycles, we will look into it.
Hi @rmarting @ashokponkumar ,
I have applied for the CNCF - Konveyor: Move2Kube Allow customizations to be added as remote git repo path as an LFX Mentee.
Looking forward to hearing soon from the team and working with you all :-)

Sorry @Rahulkhinchi03, @avinabneogy23, and @c0d33ngr but I am not sure why you are tagging me about ... as I don't know anything about the topic you are speaking on.
We have this feature implemented by @venkatbandarupalli, can we close this? @ashokponkumar
