Overview

The editor plugin allows to create, upload, modify and delete files directly in SCM-Manager. These changes are executed as commits by SCM-Manager. Therefore, changes can only be performed on branches (except for Subversion). By using additional plugins, like for example the SCM-BranchWP plugin (branch write protection) it is possible to protect branches or certain areas of a repository from write access, even if users generally have write access for a repository.
