Systems
A System groups related Resources, and optional Subsystems, so you can share, browse, and version them together. Folders arrange those Resources in the System's directory. Every System starts with a baseline branch. Each saved change to a branch is a commit.
Click Systems in the sidebar to open the System Dashboard (/systems-dashboard). Open a System to see its home page, with Overview, Directory, Workflows, Change Request, and Branch in the header.
For how Systems relate to Resources, see Systems and Subsystems.
The redesigned Systems experience is the default and will become the permanent design. The legacy Systems page is still available for now but will be deprecated soon. See Legacy Systems page.

A few tasks are still only available on the legacy page:
| Task | On the legacy page |
|---|---|
| Promote one branch onto another | Go to Branches > Promote. See Branches. |
| Compare any two commits | Commit history > Compare versions. See Commits. |
