Emergent Help

Push/pull from GitHub --> Branch selection --> Save progress & collaborate

To connect your GitHub account to Emergent:  

1. Click on your profile at the top of the interface

2. Look for and click the "Connect GitHub" button, you will be redirected to GitHub's authorization page

3. Grant Emergent permission to access your repositories

Click the GitHub button in the Emergent interface.

Select a repository from the dropdown list to work with.

To commit and push your changes to GitHub:

Click the "Save to GitHub" -> Select the branch -> Click "PUSH TO GITHUB".

If you're experiencing difficulties pushing your Emergent project to GitHub:

 Locate and use the "Save to GitHub" function in the chat interface. This native integration is optimized for Emergent projects.

 Verify your GitHub credentials are correctly linked to your Emergent account. You may need to reconnect authorization if it has expired.

Confirm you have write access to the target repository. Check that the repository exists and you're targeting the correct URL

If problems persist, try creating a new repository specifically for your Emergent project, which often resolves permission-related issues.

Conflict detected error while pushing to GitHub

When encountering GitHub conflict errors with your Emergent project:

: This is the simplest solution to bypass conflicts with existing code. A new branch allows you to save your work without affecting the main codebase. Later, you can properly merge changes using GitHub's conflict resolution tools.                                                                                                                                    

 This error typically occurs when changes in your Emergent project conflict with recent changes in the repository. Creating a new branch isolates your changes until you're ready to resolve conflicts.

For complex projects, we recommend always working in feature branches rather than pushing directly to main/master branches.

2) Select the desired Repository -> Select the Branch -> You're back in business.

Chat forking is Emergent's solution to the context limit challenge that occurs when building complex applications. As your conversation with Claude grows longer and approaches the 200,000 token context limit, you might notice slower responses or hit the maximum capacity. Instead of losing your progress, forking allows you to seamlessly continue your project in a fresh chat while preserving all the essential context.

 Claude has a 200,000 token context window. In complex fullstack development sessions, conversations can quickly consume this limit through:

 Previously, users had to manually push code to GitHub, start a new chat, and pull the code back - often losing crucial context about design decisions, architectural choices, and project evolution.

 Chat forking preserves your project's context intelligently while giving you a fresh start.

When you fork a chat, Emergent's intelligent summarization system:

 a comprehensive summary that captures the essential context

 a new chat with the summary injected into the system prompt

 your current code state to the new environment

Need to start a major new feature or refactoring

Want to experiment with different approaches while preserving your main thread

Long debugging sessions that have accumulated extensive logs

 Look for the "Fork Chat" button in your current conversation

 Click the fork button when you're ready to continue in a fresh environment

 The system will analyze your conversation and prepare the summary (this takes a few moments)

 You'll be automatically transitioned to a new chat with:
 

Exact conversation history (replaced with intelligent summary)

Detailed debugging logs (unless currently relevant)

Exploratory discussions that didn't impact the final code

 Finish implementing the feature or fix you're working on

 If you've made important architectural choices, briefly summarize them before forking

 Ensure your current code is in a stable, working state

 Check that the new chat's context summary accurately reflects your project

 Verify that your code works as expected in the new environment

 Proceed with development as you would in any chat with Claude

Q: What if the summary misses important context?

 A: You can provide additional context to Claude in your first message after forking. The AI is designed to incorporate new information seamlessly.

 A: Yes! You can fork as many times as needed. Each fork creates a new conversation with preserved context.

 A: Your original chat remains accessible in your history. Forking creates a new branch, not a replacement.

Q: How do I know when I'm approaching the context limit?

 A: Emergent will display warnings as you approach the token limit, and you may notice slower response times.

 Don't wait until you hit the limit - fork when transitioning between major features or phases

 Each forked chat works best when focused on specific aspects or phases of your project

 When possible, give your forked chats descriptive names to track different branches of development

 Periodically assess whether your current approach is working or if a fork might help organize your development

Chat forking transforms the context limit from a roadblock into a seamless transition, allowing you to build increasingly complex applications without interruption. This feature enables true continuous development in Emergent, making it possible to create sophisticated full-Stack applications through extended collaboration with Claude.

Made a change in your project and instantly regretted it? No worries — our Rollback feature has you covered.

You get an option of "Rollback" at each step in your messages.

Just move to a point where you feel your previous version was better! And click on the "Rollback" option. Following that, you will be able to erase all messages and the generated code or just the messages with code still intact.

Now you can keep building and make your projects even more awesome!
