You can manage your Drupal code in Cloud Platform using Git, a version control system (VCS). You can use the command-line versions of Git or various GUI tools that include open source, commercial IDE plugins, or GUI clients.

Note

Acquia does not provide support for third-party version control management tools.

Learn about [Using Git](/acquia-cloud-platform/develop-apps/repository/git) with Cloud Platform.

After you configure your environment to work with the code repository that you’ll use to manage your codebase on Cloud Platform, you can [check out a local copy of your codebase](repository/checkout.html) from the remote code repository.
