Using Local Mode with Optimistic Locking

When you are working with Dimensions projects, you can edit files without checking them out from source control by working on them in local mode. Local mode can be enabled for individual files, unlike offline mode which affects the entire workspace.

NOTE
You can choose to enable local mode at the project level, which will place all files contained by the project into local mode. The project itself cannot be in local mode.

You can use local mode with a pessimistic locking environment to work on files without checking them out, and directly check in the updated files. Local mode does not apply to Dimensions streams.

If you place files in local mode and fetch newer revisions of the files from the repository, the newer revisions are not placed into local mode automatically.
