Linking your Overleaf Account to your GitHub account It is not possible to synchronize an existing Overleaf project with an existing Github repository. You can synchronize an Overleaf project with a GitHub repository by either creating a new Overleaf project from an existing GitHub repository or by creating a new GitHub repository from an existing Overleaf project. GitHub synchronization can only be used on and cannot be used to connect to other GitHub enterprise installations. The GitHub Synchronization feature allows you to link your Overleaf projects directly to a GitHub repository that acts as a remote repository for your Overleaf project, and provides a way to push and pull changes between them. Overleaf premium features are available to participants in Overleaf Commons, members of group subscriptions, and owners of individual subscriptions. GitHub Synchronization is a premium feature. Please see this page for suggestions on troubleshooting common Git-bridge problems.
