REVIEW
Create a source of truth
Turn ideas into proposals, then allow collaborators to contribute through change requests (or direct editing). With Git Sync, you can maintain planning and product docs that are as updated as your codebase. Commit (and edit) without fear—your original content is protected and there’s a record of every change. It’s the Git you know, minus the complexity.

Protect your main branch
Bi-directional Git sync
SECURE
Your content, your way
Keep an internal archive detailing every product release, from first PR to final merge. And if you’re looking to empower partners, power users and external developers, visitor authentication allows you to share content, securely. The bottom line? You maintain complete control over who views your content (and when).
