How can I version control Penpot files in git / GitHub?

Hi all!

I teach a large course (140+ students on the list) at University of Tartu and University of Pennsylvania.

We track our work using GitHub:

The students need to version control the icons they use for figures in the class.

Is there a code example for this please? Or could I implement this for the class?

Thank you!!

  • You can download the svg (file/export), and check the in to a git repository.
  • What you can not do is put an ongoing versioning into a repository automatically and directly from penpot. (It would not make a lot of sense for various reasons on how visual /behavioral design differs from code and how git works best with hand written, line-based code)
