<p><strong>File Explorer version control integration</strong> provides version control information directly in File Explorer. This includes information such as the branch name, last commit author, last commit message, and more.</p>
<div class="NOTE">
<h5>Note</h5>
<p>As of right now, File Explorer version control integration only supports Git. The Advanced Settings system component is extensible to allow for additional version control types.</p>

<h2 id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</h2>
<p>File Explorer version control integration is available in the <a href="https://aka.ms/BetaLatest">Windows Beta channel</a>. See <a href="/windows-insider/get-started">Get started with the Windows Insider Program</a> for more information about joining the program and selecting a channel. After you've joined the Beta channel, you can (<a href="ms-settings:windowsupdate">check for Windows updates</a>).</p>
<h2 id="how-to-identify-repositories">How to identify repositories</h2>
<p>Windows has to know which folders are source code repositories so File Explorer can display the version control information. You can select your repository folders in Windows Advanced Settings &gt; File Explorer settings under the File Explorer + version control header.</p>

<p><strong>Advanced Windows settings</strong> is a redesign of the original <strong>For Developers</strong> page in Windows settings with additional settings to help you be more productive.</p>
<h2 id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</h2>
<p>Advanced settings is available in the <a href="https://aka.ms/BetaLatest">Windows Beta channel</a>. See <a href="/windows-insider/get-started">Get started with the Windows Insider Program</a> for more information about joining the program and selecting a channel. After you've joined the Beta channel, you can (<a href="ms-settings:windowsupdate">check for Windows updates</a>).</p>
<h2 id="faq">FAQ</h2>
<h3 id="why-was-for-developers-renamed-to-advanced">Why was For Developers renamed to Advanced?</h3>
<p>Most of the settings available within the For Developers page are useful for other advanced Windows users as well. In order to help all users discover these settings, the page was redesigned and renamed to Advanced.</p>
<h2 id="windows-advanced-settings-system-component-open-source-repository">Windows Advanced Settings system component open source repository</h2>
<p>To provide enhanced functionality to the Advanced settings page, there is an open-source system component that enables features like <a href="fe-version-control.html">File Explorer version control integration</a>. We welcome your contributions and feedback, and the source code for the Windows Advanced Settings system component is available on <a href="https://github.com/microsoft/windowsAdvancedSettings">GitHub</a>.</p>
