Protecting Projects

By default, projects are unprotected: any user to whom the project is visible can add source files, include or exclude objects.

Note: Only a master user or the owner of a shared unprotected project can delete it.

The project owner or master user can designate a project as protected, in which case no user can delete or modify the project, including the project owner or master user: the project is read-only, until the project owner or master user turns protection off.

Turn on protection by selecting the project in the Repository pane and choosing Project > Toggle Protection. Choose Project > Toggle Protection again to turn it off. Look for a symbol like this one to indicate that a project is protected.
