| <h3> Replacing</h3> |
| <p>Suppose after further reflection, it becomes apparent |
| to Jane that the revision of <em class="FileName">file1.txt</em> that was just received is incorrect and |
| an earlier revision is required. A Workbench resource can be replaced |
| with an earlier revision of the resource from the repository. To roll |
| back to an earlier revision:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li class="Steps">In one of the navigation views select the <em class="FileName">file1.txt</em>. |
| </li> |
| <li class="Steps"> From the file's context menu, select <em class="UILabel">Replace With > History....</em> |
| </li> |
| <li class="Steps">The history view will open and display the revisions available for the |
| selected file. Make sure that the history view is in Remote Revisions mode. (If it is not you can put it in |
| Remote mode by clicking on the <em class="UILabel">Remote Revisions</em> button in the History view toolbar.) |
| Select revision <b>1.3</b> in the |
| table and from the pop-up menu choose <em class="UILabel">Get Contents</em>. |
| <img class="Big" src="../images/Image84_replace3.png" alt="History View"> |
| </li> |
| <li class="Steps">Observe that the navigation view updates to show the CVS state of a resource. |
| Notice that the modified file is preceded by ">" indicating |
| that <em class="FileName">file1.txt</em> has changed (by replacing it with the earlier version). |
| <img class="Big" src="../images/Image84_replace2.png" alt="File selection"> |
| </li> |
| <li class="Steps">Now assume that this older revision is not as good as it initially seemed |
| and in fact the revision in the repository is better after all. |
| <p>Instead of choosing <em class="UILabel">Team > Synchronize with Repository</em>, choose |
| <em class="UILabel">Replace With > Latest from HEAD</em>.</p> |
| <p>Observe that <em class="FileName">file1.txt</em> is updated to have the same contents as the latest revision from the repository, |
| and that the leading indicator ">" has been removed since it is now the |
| same revision as the repository. </p> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| <p>Now that you have a file's revisions displayed in the History View, it is possible to compare revisions directly |
| by selecting the revisions in the table and choosing <em class="UILabel">Compare With Each Other.</em></p> |
