Managing versions of the folder
The folder can be checked in and out. As such, the folder gets a version history.
It is possible to check in an individual file, for example when it is approved for release. When the file is checked in, the current file version can not be edited anymore.
For instructions, see:
It is possible to check out a file or folder (resource) that has previously been checked in. A checked in resource cannot be changed. When you check out a resource, a new version is created and the resource can be edited.
For instructions, see:
If you have a checked out version of a resource (file or folder), it is possible to revert to the previous checked in version of the resource. This means that any changes made in the checked out version are lost.

For instructions, see:
The file version label, which is for example displayed when viewing the file version tree, can be changed.

Cutting and pasting the folder
It is possible to modify the structure of the workspace by moving the files and folders.

Moving a resource does not change the resource ID, which means that links to them are not broken. If the resource's parent folders are not working versions, they will be updated to new versions.
For instructions, see:
Copying the folder
You can duplicate previously created files and folders by copying them. New resource IDs will be assigned to resource copies.
