GitProtect 2.0.5

🆕 NEW FEATURES

Support for additional credentials during repository and Azure DevOps project restores

To reduce API throttling and limitations, multiple credentials (e.g., PATs, GitHub Apps) can now be used at the organization level during restore operations for Git repositories and Azure DevOps projects.

When configuring a restore task, you can select which credentials to use. The system automatically chooses the most suitable credential for each repository or project and rotates credentials throughout the restore process, improving throughput and reliability.

Restore Azure DevOps project using repositories from the same backup chain

Previously, restoring an Azure DevOps project along with its repositories would use the latest available repository snapshots, regardless of whether they came from the same project backup.

Version 2.0.5 introduces a new setting, restore repositories from this project’s backup, enabled by default for backups created with this version. When active, repositories are restored only from the same backup chain as the project, ensuring consistency in the restored state.
