### Remarks

Note that [AssetDatabase.IsOpenForEdit](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/assetdatabase/isopenforedit.md) and [AssetDatabase.IsMetaFileOpenForEdit](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/assetdatabase/ismetafileopenforedit.md) returns false while a query is in progress as the VCS status is still unknown.
