Check Out For Edit Dialog Box (Source Control)

Checks out solutions, projects, or individual items from source control. Checking out an item can copy the current master copy to your local machine and remove its read-only attribute. You can optionally configure the Check Out For Edit command to check out only the local version. Unless your source control package is configured to support shared checkouts, checking out an item also locks the item so that it is read-only to other users.

Dialog Box Access

In Visual Studio, select an item in Solution Explorer. On the File menu, click Source Control, then click Check Out For Edit.

Note

This dialog box is also available by right-clicking the item in Solution Explorer.

  • Columns

  • Compare Versions

  • Don't Show Check Out dialog box when checking out items
    Keeps the dialog box from being displayed during checkout operations.

  • Edit

  • Flat View

  • Name
    Displays the names of the items available for checkout. Items that are selected appear with check boxes next to them. If you do not want to check out a particular item, clear its check box.
