Step 1: Creating the Branched Project
The Project Settings page in the Branch Project wizard enables you to define the properties for the branched project and then creates the project once you click Next to move to the next wizard page. By default, property values are pre-populated with values from the source project. However, you can edit these properties as needed.
To create the branched project, do the following:
|
1.
|
On the Project Settings page in the Branch Project wizard, identify the properties for the new branched project. Initially, the properties from the source project pre-populate this page, but you can edit these properties as needed. See Branch Project: Project Information for a description of each property. |
The option you choose for Source Code Options determines how the branching process obtains the codebase files for the branched project. Initially, the Upload Codebase option is selected by default. The Merge from Source Control option is also selected if the source project obtains codebase files from synchronization with a Source Control Management instance. However, you can edit these options as needed for the branched project. If you select neither option, only inventory and inventory-review information is copied to the branched project; no information about the files associated with inventory is branched.

Click Next to create the project and proceed to the next appropriate page in the wizard. |
Once the project is created, you cannot edit the project Name should you return to this page to update project properties. Additionally, once a codebase is uploaded for the branched project, the Scan Server and Upload Codebase options on the Project Information page will be disabled.
