Removing Files from a Source-Controlled Project
You can remove individual files from source control if you no longer want them to be part of your source-controlled project. You might do this, for example, if a program or form becomes obsolete and is no longer part of your project
To remove a file from source control
- In the Project Manager, select the file to remove.
- From the Project menu, choose Source Control, and then choose Remove Files from Source Control.
- In the Remove Files from Source Control dialog box, select the files to remove, and then click OK.
If you remove a file from a Visual FoxPro project that's under source control, Visual FoxPro prompts you whether you want only to remove the file from the project or to delete it from disk. A setting in the Options dialog box determines whether Visual FoxPro also prompts you to remove the file from the source-controlled project.
- If Remove files from source control upon removal from project is checked, Visual FoxPro also prompts you to remove the file from the source-controlled project.
- If Remove files from source control upon removal from project isn't checked, you're not prompted, and the file is left under source control.
After a file has been removed from source code control, copies of it might still exist on other developers' computers. If so, the file is treated as a local file only for those developers.
