How to turn off version for the Master Page Gallery


In our scenario, I am not using SharePoint workflows for approval. My files have already been approved, so before I upload a new master page, I want to turn off
versioning for the Master Page Gallery.
To turn off versioning for the Master Page Gallery:
1.On the LIBRARY tab, click Library Settings.
2.On the Settings page, click Versioning settings.
3.On the Versioning Settings page, in the Content Approval section, for Require content approval for submitted items, select No.
4.In the Document Version History section, for Create a version each time you edit a file in this document library, select No versioning.
5.In the Require Check Out section, for Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited, select No.
Now we’re ready to upload a new master page.
