Git in Snowflake limitations

This topic describes limitations for using Git repositories from within Snowflake.

  • Currently, only Notebooks applications can write to the repository. For other Snowflake code, access to the repository is read-only.

  • Access to Git repositories from Snowflake is supported only over the public internet. For example, access is not supported to repositories that are behind a private network.

  • Sharing repository stages is not supported through data sharing or apps built on the Snowflake Native App Framework.

  • Creating repository stages inside application packages is not supported and might be blocked in the future.

  • Creating repository stages inside native applications on the consumer side is not supported.

  • Accessing files from a repository stage may perform more slowly than accessing files from an internal Snowflake stage.

  • Repositories with submodules are not supported.
