Create or import your code into your Project (Repository)
You've already created your Group and Project within GitLab; we'll quickly review this hierarchy below. Once you're within your project you can easily create or import repositories.
With GitLab Groups, you can:
- Assemble related projects together.
- Grant members access to several projects at once.
Groups can also be nested in subgroups.
Read more about groups in our documentation.
Within GitLab Projects, you can
- Create one or multiple Projects for hosting your codebase (repositories).
- Use it as an issue tracker.
- Collaborate on code.
- Continuously build, test, and deploy your app with built-in GitLab CI/CD.
You can also import an existing repository by providing the Git URL.
