The main difference between the old version of Guvnor and the new KIE workbench is that KIE utilizes Git and Maven repositories.  

KIE Git repositories can be found on .niogit folder of the KIE installation.  For example in wildfly the location would be wildfly/bin/.niogit 

The location of .niogit can be overridden with the system property -Dorg.uberfire.nio.git.dir 

This repository is available via Git or SSH, the default URL is as follows:

git://localhost:9418/{repositoryname}

ssh://localhost:8001/{repositoryname}

New Maven modules are created when the user builds and deploys KIE projects.  KIE Maven repositories are located on the repositories/kie folder.  

You can store your KIE changes in remote git repositories by adding a remote git repo and issuing the following push:

$ git push origin master

The following roles are available:

In wildfly you can add a user and its role as follows:

As you can see on the previous screenshot, the user "salvador" has been added and the roles of admin and kiemgmt has been granted. 

KIE introduces a new feature called "asset management".  In summary, it provides Maven version control and Git branch management. 

There is a distinction between plain Git repositories (unmanaged) and managed repositories.  Managed repositories can be created by selecting the option Managed Repository in the New Repository dialog window.  A managed repository can be a Single Project or Multi Project.  In a multi-project, each of the contained projects will be related to the same parent and they will share the same group and version.

It is important to note that in order to be able to create managed repositories, your user must have the kiemgmt role.     

The following operations take place on managed repositories:

Administration -> Repositories -> New Repository -> name (e.g., managedOpenCDSRepo), organizational unit (e.g., OpenCDS), Managed Repository (Checked) -> Next -> Multi-project Repository (Checked), Project Branches (leave defaults) -> Finish

Note: You can clone and push the changes to the appropriate branch as follows: $ git push master:dev-1.0.0 

Users can perform asset management tasks by selecting the appropriate button in the Repository -> Repository Structure view

Human tasks can be reviewed and completed on Task -> Task List (please check the user guide chapter7 for more details about Human tasks)

Note: User management tasks are only available for users with the role kiemgmt

Some of the management tasks include:
