Guess Settings from Repository URL

TeamCity can automatically discover the VCS type and settings from the repository URL.

When configuring a VCS root, select the Guess from Repository URL option from the drop-down menu and specify the URL. TeamCity will recognize the URL for a supported version control and will create a VCS root automatically. After the VCS root is created, you can modify its settings using the Project Settings or Build Configuration Settings page.

VCS URL Formats

Git	`http(s)` URLs `git://` Maven-like URLs: `https://maven.apache.org/scm/git.html` For SSH authentication, create a VCS Root from a URL first and then open its settings to specify the SSH key to be used. Alternatively, create a Git VCS Root manually.
Mercurial	`http(s)` URLs Maven-like URLs: `https://maven.apache.org/scm/mercurial.html`
