Personal Workspace

The personal workspace is a private editing area where authors can make changes before committing them to the project.

When an author opens a project, the work is done in a personal workspace. This workspace acts as a private area where you can edit files and prepare changes before you commit them.

This helps authors work safely on multiple files without changing the shared project content immediately.

What Authors Do in the Personal Workspace

Open and edit project files.
Review incoming changes.
Track local changes before committing them.
Prepare updates across several files as one set of work.
Validate the project content.

Why it Matters

The personal workspace separates in-progress work from the shared repository state. This gives authors more control over when changes become part of the project history.
