Versioning allows you to track content history. By
default, content that is created in the repository is not versionable. When
creating content, users must specify versionable on a case-by-case
basis.
When content is versionable, the version history is started. The first version of the content is the content that exists at the time of versioning. If you want all content to be versionable at the instant of creation, you can modify the definition of that content type in the data dictionary. The definition must include the mandatory aspect versionable.
By default, all versionable content has auto-version on. As a result, when content is updated, the version number is updated. The auto-version capability can be turned off on a content-by-content basis in the user interface. If you want auto-versioning to be off for all content, you can modify the definition of that content type in the data dictionary.
