Define Project Template Rules

Rules define which artifacts are copied from the template project to the new project.

When you define a project as a project template, all rules will be enabled by default. However, some rules can't be edited or added more than once.

Here are the available rules and information about the artifacts that are copied from the project template to the new project:
