| |
| <p>To replace Workbench resources with versions in the repository: |
| </p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>Select a resource in one of the navigation views.</li> |
| <li>From the resource's pop-up menu, select one of the following menu items: |
| <UL> |
| <LI><b>Replace With > Latest From <Branch Name></b> or <strong><Version></strong> |
| - replace the Workbench resource with the latest resources currently committed |
| to the branch that the local project is shared with or if the local project |
| is checked out as a version then replace with the same version.</LI> |
| <LI><b>Team > Revert to Base</b> |
| - replace the Workbench resource with the last checked out revision. |
| Deleted files are restored. </LI> |
| <LI><b>Replace With > Another Branch or Version</b> - replace the Workbench |
| resource with a specific version or branch that you select in the repository. |
| When you select this option, another window opens, so that you can browse |
| through the branch and version tags in the repository and select the one |
| that you want.</LI> |
| <LI><b>Replace With > History...</b> - (available only on a file) replace |
| the Workbench file with another revision of the file. Based on your preference settings, |
| either the History view or a dialog will open. The History view (or dialog) |
| will contain a table of all available revisions of the selected file. |
| Selecting one of the revisions will show the differences between the workspace |
| revision and the selected revision. To replace the workspace revision, you |
| should select the revision that you want and choose 'Get Contents' from the |
| context menu. This will replace the contents of the workspace file with those |
| of the selected revision.</LI> |
| <LI><strong>Team > Switch to Another Branch or Version</strong> - this |
| update will replace Workbench resources with those on the tag specified |
| in the Update dialog. The behavior differs from the above replace operations |
| in that uncommitted modifications in the Workbench are not replaced but |
| instead are "moved" to the resources from the selected tag. |
| For more details on the specifics of this operation, see the CVS documentation |
| at <a href="https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/CVS">https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/CVS</a> relating to the |
| use of the <em>-r </em>option with <em>cvs update</em>.</LI> |
| </UL> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| <p><em>Tip</em>: When replacing with a branch or version or when updating, you |
| can specify a particular date instead of a a version or branch tag. This can |
| be done by right clicking on the <strong>Dates</strong> category in the tag |
| selection list and choosing <strong>Add Date</strong>. A Date Tag dialog is |
| displayed that allows you to specify a date and optionally a time. After you |
| click <strong>Ok</strong>, the date tag will appear in the tag selection list.</p> |
