Repository's Scope
At any point in time you can change the scope of a repository. By widening the scope of repository you are opening it up so that more configurations can access the repository. Conversely, narrowing the scope of a repository reduces the number of configurations that can access the repository. Therefore, when narrowing the scope of a repository (moving a global repository to the project or configuration scope, or a project repository to configuration scope) you must take care that configurations that use that repository can still access it after changing the scope.
