General

Enable object versioning

Globally enables or disables object versioning. This option is enabled by default. If disabled, no versions are created when objects are modified.

Delete objects to recycle bin

Determines which objects should be moved to recycle bin when deleted:

•No - no objects are moved to recycle bin when deleted, i.e. they are deleted permanently.

•Versioned objects only - only objects that support versioning and whose versioning is enabled  by the settings below are moved to recycle bin when deleted.

•All objects - all objects that support staging synchronization are moved to recycle bin when deleted.

Version history

Version history length (major versions)

Indicates how many major versions of a single object will be stored in its version history. If the number of major versions exceeds this value, the oldest versions are deleted. If set to 0, major versions history length is not limited.

Version history length (minor versions)

Indicates how many minor versions of a single object will be stored in its version history. If the number of versions exceeds this value, the oldest version is deleted. If set to 0, minor versions history length is not limited.

Save to last version if younger than (minutes)

If an object is edited and saved within this number of minutes since it was last saved, changes made to it are saved to the last version. If it is saved after more minutes since it was last saved, a new version is created. If set to 0, a new version is created whenever you save an edited object.

Promote to major version if older than (hours)

If an object is edited and saved after this number of hours since it was last saved, a new major version is created. If it is saved earlier, a new minor version is created or the changes are saved to the latest version (depending on the setting above). If set to 0, major versions are never created automatically.
