Cross recovery options

In general, GitProtect allows you to restore the data between GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket. Different vendors give you an opportunity to create different metadata, which is not common to all providers. Due to this fact, during the restore process, you can meet the case, when some metadata may be not available to restore. In this article, you will find the information, on which metadata are allowed to restore between GitHub and other Git providers.
