System Modeler allows you to perform most of the operations in Source Control within Visual Studio. There is an exception to the list of operations, which is listed in the later subsection. The exception is primarily because System Modeler is a model based system as opposed to the common file based system with which Visual Studio usually interacts.

Visual Studio allows integration of a variety of version control tools with its Source Control services. Options are available to specify how Source Control services should respond to operations invoked by the user. These are available from the Tools> Options menu within the Source Control folder. Refer to the Visual Studio online help, for overview information on the Visual Studio Options dialog box.

Refer to Setting User Options in Source Control for options specific to using Source Control for System Modeler.

The Visual Studio Online Help provides extremely detailed information on the Visual Studio Source Control services, for example, on TFS Azure DevOps Services and describes the working and the operations that can be carried out with it. You should refer to this information if you are not familiar with the concepts of Source Control, prior to using the System Modeler Source Control and its documentation.

The information in this section of the System Modeler Help includes the functionality specific to using Source Control with System Modeler.
