A system and method for providing configuration management support for an engineering design, the system using an object-oriented database and private workspace to provide for change isolation. The creation of the private workspace is accomplished with a novel “ownership only” full copying approach which is efficient with respect to disk storage space and consumption of computing resources, especially where the database includes many small items which are under configuration management.
