Security

abapGit is a tool to import and export code between ABAP systems. If a developer has a developer key to the system, the developer can perform these actions already. abapGit enables the developer to do mass export/changes/imports but not more than already possible to do manually.

Running automated security checks on the abapGit code will by design give a lot of errors, as abapGit will import, overwrite and change ABAP artifacts in the system in ways that might not be intended. Always review all code in remote repositories before importing to the target system, this is possible because abapGit is plain text unlike traditional transport files.

That being said, abapGit is used by multiple organizations, all abapGit changes are reviewed via pull requests. And all 100+ repository watchers are automatically notified for every change to the code base, so potentially all changes are looked at by more people than traditional enterprise products.

Support

It is a community effort to support the project, recommend watching the project to get a feeling about issue resolution. Everyone can suggest changes to abapGit via pull requests.
