Lock Rules#

Locking (exclusive checkout) is useful for handling files that cannot be merged (3D assets, images, audio). You can configure the locking rules so that Unity VCS knows which files to lock on checkout.

There are two types of lock rules:

Organization rule#

This lock rule applies to all repositories that don’t have repository-specific rules. You can only create one rule per organization.

To set up an organization lock rule:

1. On the Organization page, go to the Lock rules tab.
2. Under Organization rule, select Create lock rule.
3. Select the repository that the rule should apply to.
4. Add the file extensions manually or select Generate common rules to populate with file extensions.
5. Select Save.

Repository-specific rules#

These lock rules are specific to a repository and overwrite the organization lock rules. You can create as many repository-specific rules per organization.

To set up a repository-specific lock rule:

1. From the Lock rules tab on the organizations page, go to the Repository specific rules section, and select Create lock rule.
2. Select the repository that the rule should apply to.
3. Add the file extensions manually or select Generate common rules to populate with file extensions.
4. Select Save.

Excluding branches#

When configuring lock rules, you can also define branches that are not affected by them.

Branch exclusion rules give you more control over how you set up automations, prototype branches or any configuration that fits with your workflow.

Delete lock rules#

To delete a lock rule:

1. From the Lock rules tab on the organizations page, select the lock rule you want to delete.
2. Select Delete lock rule.
