VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
 captures the content from the source control endpoint and creates a new version of the content in the content catalog. This version is marked
SourceControl Enabled
, which tells
VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
 the state of the content when deploying to a content endpoint so the content is checked in against the right point in time.
If you are using source control and have multiple capture content endpoints, only deploy content from the content catalog is marked
SourceControl Enabled
. This communicates the state of the content when deploying to a content endpoint so the content is checked in against the right point in time.
