You can import source code from repositories other than SaaS GitHub or self-hosted GitLab by using the Jitera CLI.

💡 The maximum upload size is currently 500 MB per project.

💡 Syncing uploaded source code (jitera sync) previously required the same device and user. ➡ As of 2025.11.19, the jitera connect command now allows syncing from different devices and users.
