Exporting single files |
|---|---|
|
The export dialog does not allow exporting single files. To export single files with TortoiseGit, you have to use the repository browser (cf. Section 2.16, “The Repository Browser”) or log dialog (cf. Section 2.13, “Log Dialog”). Simply drag the file(s) you want to export from the repository browser to where you want them in the explorer, or use the context menu in the repository browser to export the files. |
