After editing a master source, hit the "Save" button & then a new window gives you the following options:
1. Apply changes to ALL references of this master source 2. Apply changes to a NEW copy of this master source. Choose option 2 and you will have created a new Master Source with your modification. The old master source will be unchanged. Choosing Option 1 makes changes to the original Master source.
