Usage

When the plugin is installed and activated, you will get a new tab below Repository settings as well as below Project settings.

NOTE! The plugin requires a valid license to function. Otherwise no blocking will be performed.

The plugin supports two different levels of archiving:

  • Project level - this will block write operations for any repository within the project.
  • Repository level - this will block write operations for the specific repository.

NOTE! If both Project and Repository archive is enabled for the same repository, the message from Repository will have precedence on repository level.

Repository level

Setting the radiobutton Archive Repository to Yes and clicking save will Archive the repository. This means, the repository is now read-only and no write events are accepted. The action is non-destructive and It's possible to unarchive the repository at any time.
