Check out a project so that the most recent version of the project in the Vault database can be edited.
Once a file is checked out, it can be edited. Only one team member can check out a file at one time. No one else can modify a checked out file until it has been checked back into the vault.
To reserve a project, select
Check Out from the
Vault tab. From the Check out dialog that appears, the user has the following options:
- Don't get local copy downloads the project stored in the Vault database, overwriting any local versions. If it is the local version of the project that is to be checked out, de-select the Don't get local copy check box before accepting the dialog.
- View the files to be stored into Vault in either a Tree or List view.
- Add a check-out comment.
