NEW IN RELEASE 140
The REST API endpoints described here allow anyone with the System Administrator role or the Edit System Configuration and Users permission to manage a Source Control Configuration.

If no source control configuration is saved, then internally we will use a default configuration when needed, which uses the value for each property if it is not configured.
A source control configuration (default or custom) will only be needed if source control management has been configured for an organization or application.
GET the Source Control Configuration
To get the source control configuration you can make a GET request to the following path:
GET /api/v2/config/sourceControl
Below is an example request to a local IQ Server using the built-in administrator account and the cURL tool:
curl -u admin:admin123 http://localhost:8070/api/v2/config/sourceControl
If no source control configuration is saved, then the request yields HTTP status code 404. Otherwise, a JSON response with all the properties described above is returned.
PUT the Source Control Configuration
To set the source control configuration you can make a PUT request to the following path:
PUT /api/v2/config/sourceControl
The request requires a JSON body as payload.
All properties are optional.
If the source control configuration is being created for the first time, then any property that is not supplied will take its default value.
If the source control configuration already exists, then any supplied properties will have their values updated to the given values.
Below is an example request to a local IQ Server using the built-in administrator account and the cURL tool:
curl -u admin:admin123 -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"cloneDirectory": "some-clone-directory", "gitImplementation": "native", "prCommentPurgeWindow": 90, "prEventPurgeWindow": 7, "gitExecutable": "/path/to/native/git/executable", "gitTimeoutSeconds": 150, "commitUsername": "some-commit-username", "commitEmail": "some-commit-email@domain", "useUsernameInRepositoryCloneUrl": true, "defaultBranchMonitoringStartTime": "1:11", "defaultBranchMonitoringIntervalHours": 2, "pullRequestMonitoringIntervalSeconds": 3}' http://localhost:8070/api/v2/config/sourceControlA successful request yields HTTP status code 204.
DELETE the Source Control Configuration
To delete the source control configuration you can make a DELETE request to the following path:
DELETE /api/v2/config/sourceControl
Below is an example request to a local IQ Server using the built-in administrator account and the cURL tool:
curl -u admin:admin123 -X DELETE http://localhost:8070/api/v2/config/sourceControl
A successful request yields HTTP status code 204.
