## Editing files in the Git repository server-side

There are some circumstances where you'll want to edit files in the Git repository on the IRIS server. For example,
- To edit interoperability system default settings for a different environment
- To edit custom configuration files

Embedded Git allows you to edit files in the Git repository server-side through VS Code. Enable the "Define a namespace-level web application " option by running `do ##class(SourceControl.Git.API).Configure()`. This will automatically create a new IRIS web application for editing files with the VS Code ObjectScript extension. Then go to the Embedded Git Web UI and use the "Code Workspace" option to download a VS Code workspace. The workspace will allow you to edit files in the Git repository on the server.
