The drag-and-drop feature
Before we talk about this feature, let's take a look at the difference between
Connect
and
Open
. You must have noticed the
Connect
and
Open
option when you connected to your
folder under
Repository
in the navigator, as shown in the upcoming screenshot.
The difference between
Connect
and
Open
is that
Connect
only connects you to the re-
pository so that you can view the components present in the folder, but
Open
allows you to

Connect
, you do not
