Remarks
To checkout an item
- The item must be under source code control.
- The item must be checked in.
If locks are configured on the server (lock.conf exists), then each time a checkout on a path happens, UVCS checks if it meets any of the rules and if so, the path will be in exclusive checkout (locked) so that none can simultaneously checkout. You can get all the locks in the server by using . Refer to Smart locks for more information.
