We've been using a Gitlab repo in the development of an application in Studio. For various reasons we are now going to disconnect from the repo. Will ServiceNow revert to tracking changes via update sets, and what about all the changes that were previously stored in the source repo? Will they be visible in the update sets?
Just want to be sure that we don't lose anything, or this will have any negative effects on the application.

Hi @afielden
As per the KBKB0715422 How to go back to using the application repository after commiting changes to an applicati... :
Once you have installed an application from the Application Repository, you must continue to develop and publish to the Application Repository for all future development. If you decide to develop an application using update sets, you must continue to use that method exclusively.
Do not combine the usage of both Update Sets and the Application Repository for scoped app development. This will result in numerous issues, including skipped changes, commit errors, and more.
