how can i setup git repo and run it into a local IRIS system in mac.
I have a repository on github. I wanna setup that repo into my local IRIS instance and also I want to work on different branch and commit those back to the same repo.
Please help me through this.
I also have a .DAT file which i think contains code and data and not .git folder. So how can i sync that to my git repo for further development.

Have you read through the documentation?
If you are using client-side editing, the ObjectScript extension doesn't know what git branch you are on. Check out a branch using git, and the ObjectScript extension will use those files. Your client-side source control activities are separate from your ObjectScript development activities (once again, if you are using client-side ObjectScript editing). .DAT files can also be managed in source control with the proviso that GitHub has a limit on how big files can be if you're using a free account.
Confirmed!
Also if zipped typical IRIS.DAT is not accepted by GitHub because of size.
If cut to smaller pieces performance and flexibility are lost.
