| <H1>Sharing a new project using CVS</H1> |
| |
| <P>There are several scenarios that can occur when sharing a project using CVS. |
| The most common scenario is sharing a new project using CVS when the project |
| does not already exist remotely. |
| </P> |
| |
| <P>To share a new project using CVS: |
| </P> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>In one of the navigation views, select the project to be shared.</li> |
| <li>Select <b>Team ></b> <b>Share Project...</b> from the project's pop-up |
| menu. The Share Project wizard opens.</li> |
| <li>From the list of available repository providers, choose <b>CVS</b> and click |
| <b>Next </b>to go to the next page. (<b>Note</b>: If CVS is not present in |
| the list, it may be disabled. Clicking on the <strong>Show All Wizards</strong> |
| button should make it visible. Also note that if there is only repository provider registered |
| for your workspace, you will automatically bypass this step entirely.)</li> |
| <li>Select the target repository from the list of known repositories or, if |
| the target repository is not in this list, choose to create a new repository |
| location and click <b>Next</b>.</li> |
| <li>If entering a new repository location, enter the repository information |
| and click <b>Next</b> when completed. (<b>Note</b>: this page is the same |
| format as the <a href="tasks-92.htm">Creating a CVS repository location</a> |
| wizard.)</li> |
| <li>Either choose to use the name of the local project as the remote project |
| name or enter another name and click <strong>Next</strong>.</li> |
| <li>The final page shows you the resources of the new project as outgoing additions. |
| You can choose to commit or ignore resources from this page. (<b>Note</b>: |
| If the project already exists remotely, the page will show conflicts on any |
| files that exist both locally and remotely. Only those files whose contents |
| do not match are shown.)</li> |
| <li>Click <b>Finish</b> to share the project with the repository. You will be |
| prompted to commit any resources in the new project that have not yet been |
| committed or ignored. Choosing to do so will run the commit operation in the |
| background. </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h4>Consequences for Linked Resources</h4> |
| <p>As mentioned in <a href="../concepts/concepts-13.htm">Linked resources</a>, different |
| providers may handle linked resources differently. For Team CVS, linked resources |
| are allowed but ignored. Specifically, projects which contain linked resources can be shared with CVS, |
| but the linked resources themselves cannot be version controlled.</p> |
