Download a project

Tell Anchor4Git where the project lives (your team lead will give you the address):
What happens:
  • Anchor4Git downloads everything to your current folder
  • A folder with the project name appears
  • All the files are ready for you to edit
If the address looks like https://github.com/... you’re downloading from the internet. If it looks like a folder path (e.g., C:\shared\project), you’re downloading from a shared drive.

Make your changes

Open the files in your favorite editor and make changes. You can:
  • Add new files
  • Edit existing files
  • Delete files you don’t need
  • Rename files
There are no special steps — just work normally.

Save your work

When you’ve made changes you want to keep:
Replace "What I changed" with a short description. For example:
What happens:
  • A snapshot of all your changes is saved locally
  • You can save as many times as you want — it’s like hitting “Save” in a game
If you don’t provide a message, Anchor4Git will make one up (e.g., “anchor4git: Save 240715-143022”).

Share your work

When you’re ready to share your changes with the team:
What happens:
  • Your saved work is sent to the team’s shared project
  • Everyone else can now download your changes
