Description from store

Manage your Google Apps Script code with your favorite scm(github/github enterprise/bitbucket).

[IMPORTANT] The new version requires Google OAuth to call Apps Script API, before the OAuth app be verified by Google, it only allow to grant 100 users' permission, if you encounter some errors said can not grant permission to the app, please wait for the verification process completed, sorry for the inconvenience!
If you can not wait, please try check out the code from https://github.com/leonhartX/gas-github and switch to v4.0.3, install the extension from source with "Load Unpacked" in the extension page, it can still work with the old IDE.

Feature:
- Push/Pull code between github and Google Apps Script
- Sync your code to public/secret Gist
- Works with "Embedded" scripts (Scripts that are bound to SHEETS, DOCS, and FORMS)
- Create github repo, branch and file from Google App Script IDE
- Show diff when pull/push
- Support choose files to pull/push
- Support commit comment when push
- Support Github, Github Enterprise, Bitbucket and GitLab
- Support two-factor authentication(only for Github and Github Enterprise)
- Support directory(with slash in filename)
- Support Github Organization, Bitbucket Team and GitLab Groups.
- Google Apps Script native ui

Attention:

- The *Pull* is not work actually the same as Github, since Google Apps Script do not have revision info, the *Pull* will just fetch your code from github and OVERWRITE(not merge) to the project.

Ian Crew 2022-07-08: This plugin is completely broken, apparently has been for nearly a year. Attempting to use it just gives a "[github assistant] can not get oauth token, currently only support Chrome" error, and bug reports (gas-github on Github) about this as far back as February 2021 are unresolved.

shailesh sharma 2021-06-08: Few days back it was working fine with bitbucket. We push all the code at bitbucket. Suddenly it stopped working with bitbucket. Unable to login. It throws error in the popup (Can not login, please check your username and password) and in console it throws below error Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://bitbucket.org/site/oauth2/access_token' from origin 'chrome-extension://lfjcgcmkmjjlieihflfhjopckgpelofo' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

中野亮太 2021-04-16: 素晴らしい！が、最初が難しい。
Anonymous 2021-02-05: Doesn't seem to be working with the new editor?
Darrel Francis 2021-01-18: Google Apps Script does not allow ES modules, so I made use of the facility to break up code into lots of separate files, which all seem to be accessible to each other without a module system. Then I went crazy trying to keep backups of these files. I was totally amazed by this Chrome extension. Literally one click install, give it a Github token, and it magically pushes commits of ALL the ".gs" files in your project to a github repo. I literally don't believe this tool exists. I deny its existence, as it is too good to be true.

Phill Jones 2020-11-24: Extremely handy add-on that lets me install scripts into Google sheets and docs quickly and easily. One minor thing. The github authentication page has options to use your GitHub password or a key. The key option works, the password doesn't. It would also be handy to have some notes about which permissions the plugin needs associated with the key.
