Branch Shared Command (Source Menu)

Breaks the share link while retaining a copy of the file, or copies the selected history version of an item to a location you specify.

You can branch a shared file. When a file is branched, the branch history of the file is shown in the Branches tab in the Properties dialog box.

Share Branch: For a file that is already shared, this command breaks the share links and creates an independent file branch at the location the file is branched. Pinned or checked-out file can not be branched.

Any changes made to that branch will not be reflected in other projects sharing the file, and the Links tab in the File Properties dialog box will not show the link that has been broken.

Share branch on a project is applied to all shared files (or descendants) within the project.

In Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere, branching a file does not increment the version number of the file.

Access Rights

You must have the Branch access right to both the source and destination project to use this command.
