Branching is a technique in version control for user to have different parts of the software development in parallel. By creating branch you can make the trunk as the stable release of your software, and doing unstable development work on branch. When manage your model project with VP Online or on-premises Teamwork Server you can grant user the access permission on the project. By combine the use of branches you can grant write permission on trunk only for the project manager, and all others only have write permission on the branch they working on.
