One-Click Cloning

Did you know that you can clone a repository with just a single click in Tower?

You may already be familiar with the Services View in Tower. This is where you can connect multiple hosting accounts such as GitHub, GitLab, or BitBucket. By connecting your service accounts, you save yourself from the labor of wrestling with URLs, usernames, passwords, tokens and everything else that makes authentication such a tedious process.

After you connect your service account, you will see a list of all the repositories under that account. Cloning one of those repositories is just a matter of a single click on the Clone button.

There is also a Create Repository button that allows you to quickly create a brand new repository under that account.
