CxSAST gives you the capability to branch / duplicate an existing project and have the new project inherit all of the issues, comments and dispositions from the source project. Once the project has been branched / duplicated you can treat it as a separate project with separate issues to manage.

To branch or duplicate an existing project, do the following:
1. Go to Projects & Scans and select Projects.

Branched projects are not counted as additional projects according to the Checkmarx licensing structure. This means that you are not allowed to create new projects once you have reached the maximum project threshold, however, you will be able to open branches of existing projects without forfeiting additional licenses. |
