When deploying from a source repository, developers simply pass the URL to the source repository as the --source flag. Developers may specify a git branch and path to source files as part of the URL in the following format:
--source https://source.developers.google.com/projects/<PROJECT_ID>/repos/<REPOSITORY_ID>/moveable-aliases/<BRANCH>/<PATH>
Google Cloud Source Repositories can be configured to mirror git repositories hosted on both GitHub and Bitbucket, making this approach a good option for an automated deployment pipeline. We'll cover source repositories in more detail in Chapter 12, Change Management.
