If you are working on a Git managed project and if you have installed the
R2021-07 Studio monthly update or a later one provided by Talend, you
can copy one or more items from a remote branch or a tag to the branch you are currently
working on.
Note:
- You cannot copying items when working in the Git offline mode.
- You can copy items from a tag to a branch but not vice versa, because a tag is a
read-only copy of a project.
