Hi!

To import your project into source control, you first need to import it with a dedicated tool.  
For instance, the creation of the Git project can be done in command line with the “git init” inside your project directory.  
See [https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/190819/source-control-error-project-is-not-part-of-a-git.html](https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/190819/source-control-error-project-is-not-part-of-a-git.html)

Also, my git plugin was not working with Mac in 4.7.x, see for instance:

There is also a wiki tutorial:

Let me know if this help!

Cheers!
