Updating project version information

You can rename a project version and update the following information:

  • Version

  • License

    Note: The SCM Repository Branch field is visible only if this feature is enabled in your environment. Manually changing the SCM branch name could break existing scans.
  • Notes

  • Nickname

  • Release Date

  • Phase

  • Distribution

  • Scan Retention

  • Data Retention

    Note: This option is displayed only if the respective flag is set in your environment.

To update project version information:

  1. Log in to Black Duck.

  2. Select the project name using the Watching or My Projects dashboard. The Project Name page appears.

  3. Select the version name of the project that you want to manage.

    The Components tab for the version opens.


    BOM page
  4. Select the Settings tab and select Version Details to update the version information.

    Note: The ability to delete a version is also available in the Version Details section, if there is more than one version of a project. You cannot delete a project version if that version is a subproject in a BOM: you must remove the project version from all BOMs before you can delete it. Select the Details tab to view where this project version is used as a subproject.
  5. Click Save.

    Black Duck saves the project version information.
