<h2>Committing Changes</h2>
<p>Since: 3.1 M4<br>
Last Modified: $Date: 2007/05/18 13:54:37 $</p>
<h3>Committing changes to existing files</h3>
<ol>
<li>Edit some existing files in a CVS project</li>
<li>Choose Team>Commit on the project from the Navigator</li>
<li>The commit dialog should show a preview of the files that are
to be committed and allow a commit comment to be entered.</li>
</ol>
<p>Some things to try:
<ul>
<li>Committing a project (or selected resources) that contain no
changes will prompt to indicate this.</li>
<li>Files can be removed from the preview area and these will be
excluded from the commit.</li>
<li>Clicking OK without entering a comment should prompt.</li>
<li>Emptying the preview area will disable the Finish and show a
"no changes" message.</li>
<li>Try different page layouts (compressed, tree and flat)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Committing new files</h3>
<ol>
<li>Add a few new files to a project including some with unknown
extensions and some with no extensions.</li>
<li>Choose Team>Commit on the project from the Navigator</li>
<li>The first page of the commit wizard will allow you to
configure the file types for any new files whose content type cannot be
determined.</li>
<ul>
<li>Configure some to be remembered and others to be only applied
to this commit (verify after that this was done properly)</li>
</ul>
<li>Click Next and verify that the content type was determined
properly.</li>
<li>Choose to ignore one of the files and verify that the file is
removed and the .cvsignore appears.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Committing files contained in a Change Set</h3>
<ol>
<li>From the Synchronize view, select all the changes from the
same Change Set.</li>
<li>Choose Commit and verify that the comment in the commit dialog
is the one from the change Set.</li>
</ol>
