  • You can define any number of Version Control Configurations for use in a single model, however any given package can be associated with only one configuration
  • If you are using the Corporate or extended editions of Enterprise Architect with security enabled, you must also set up permissions to configure and use version control.  See List of Available Permissions for more information
