You can move all of the Salesforce organization’s metadata components to a GIT repository branch using the Salesforce Bulk Migration Task. Once the task has been created, run it to select the metadata component types and the target branch to bring in the changes. Opsera will push the code to the configured branch of the repository during complete sync-up and override any components that are present there.
