External Tools Configuration

Is it possible to access a repository file or folder for read only access. I'd like to provide an argument that caused the repository resourse to be copied to a temporary or working folder.

Is there another way to do this?

It depends at what level you want to restrict the upload and why.

If you're just picking individual files from the eclipse interface, you
can navigate a stream to the desired file and choose Load, and a save
prompt will then let you save the file to disk, and this file is not
shared.

Otherwise, I would just keep a repository workspace in sync with your
stream and load it. The repository workspace is in between the local disk
and the stream anyways. You need to do the explicit checkin, then deliver
to accidentally share your temporary files. e.g. the build system for
automated testing basically accepts all changes from a stream into it's
own repository workspace and loads it.

You could restrict write permissions on the delivery to the stream and
component as an extra measure.
