# allowAsyncStatusUpdate

> Allow version control status updates to be performed asynchronously.

## Definition

* **Type:** Property
* **Namespace:** [UnityEditor](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityeditor.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEditor.CoreModule

```csharp
public static bool allowAsyncStatusUpdate { get; set; }
```

### Remarks

When enabled, version control status updates are performed asynchronously in the background. This can improve Editor responsiveness when working with large projects under version control, but might result in status icons being temporarily out of date.
