# Cross-recovery

**GitProtect enables cross-recovery between Azure DevOps, DevOps Server, and other DevOps platforms, allowing organizations to restore repositories, wikis, and associated metadata across these environments. The process preserves repository content, such as branches, pull requests, and other artifacts where supported, ensuring consistency and integrity during restoration.**

***

## Available Git platforms

**GitProtect** allows you to restore backup data across all supported **DevOps** platforms.

Different vendors provide various types of metadata, which may not be common to all providers. **As a result, during the restore process, some metadata might not be available for restoration.**

The following table outlines protected **Azure DevOps** and **DevOps Server** metadata and where it can be restored.
