# Netlify: create a new project from Git

## Steps
1. Go to your team's Projects page.
2. Open the Add new project menu.
3. Select Import an existing project.
4. Select the Git provider hosting the repository (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, or Cursor Origin).
5. Select the repository.
6. Adjust site/build settings if needed, then deploy.

## End state
The project is created and its first deploy starts; subsequent pushes to the connected branch trigger automatic continuous deployment.

## Moved from
Current Netlify docs call the deployed unit a "project" ("Add new project", "Project configuration") rather than the older "site" terminology; the underlying concept (one deployed app/site) is unchanged.
