Troubleshooting

Common Issues

The button is Grey / "Offline"

• Cause: Unreal Engine built-in Source Control is disabled.
• Fix: Click "Source Control: Off" in bottom right -> "Connect to Source Control".

"Fatal: Invalid path /Temp/..." Errors

• Cause: You are working on an unsaved map ("Untitled"). Git cannot track files that exist only in RAM.
• Fix: Press Ctrl+S and save the map into your Content folder.

The Light stays Green but I know there is an update.

• Cause: The "Git (Beta)" plugin often caches status aggressively to save performance.
• Fix: Click the Green Button once. This forces a "Brute Force" network poll on the current map file.

I see a Red Light. What do I do?

• Cause: You and a teammate edited the same file.
• Fix: Click the Red Button. Unreal allows you to Merge. If the binary cannot be merged, you must decide to Keep Yours or Accept Theirs in the window that appears.
