Reviewing or Changing Branching Behavior

If a folder, file, or change request in a child view has the appropriate settings, you are able to branch it. Meaning, you can separate it from the corresponding item in the parent view.

At any time, you can determine whether a folder, file, or change request in a branch view is set to Branch On Change (that is, its current branching behavior), and if theBranch On Change field is enabled, you can change it's branching behavior.

Note: Folders and change requests branch when their properties change, while files branch when either their contents or their properties change. Requirements, tasks, and topics never branch.
  1. Right-click a folder or item and choose Advanced > Behavior .
  2. Select the Modify tab in the Folder/ Item Behavior dialog box, and view or modify the Branch On Change check box.
