Version Control Nested Packages
When you save a Package to the version control system, only stub information is exported for any nested Packages. This protects information in a nested Package from being inadvertently over-written by a top level Package.

Checking Out |
When you check out a Package, you do not modify or delete nested Packages; only the top level Package is modified. As a consequence of this behavior, if you check out or get a version controlled Package with nested Packages that are not already in your model, you see stubs in the model for the nested Packages only. |

Get All Latest |
If you select the 'Get All Latest' option from the version control menu, any new stubs are populated from the version control system. |

Importing Models |
You can populate a large and complex model, by 'getting' only the root Packages, then using 'Get All Latest' to recursively iterate through the attached and nested Packages. This is a powerful and efficient means of managing your project and simplifies handling very large models, even in a distributed environment. The 'Import a Model Branch' option combines the procedure steps into a single operation. |
