Clients wanted to remove the linked github repositories of previous vendor that configured their portal. Still learning using source control and my question is, If we remove the sys_repo_config record associated with the application, will it impact the Application in the intance/portal? What are the most critical impact if there is? Thanks!

Hi @ryev_a_ 

no, there is no good documentation and please read the article until the end. I know it's long, but it will explain everything. And again the repository configuration has no impact on the application itself. It's only required for all Git-related actions.

Thank you for the info, is there a ServiceNow docs that relates to this, the link to this post focuses on deletion of an application not the repository config.
