Unlocking Revisions
3 Configure the following options as necessary:
Unlocking Revisions
Change Package options appear only if change packages are
enabled. Select a change package from the Change Package drop
down list, or click Create to create a new change package.
Force Creation of New Branch causes Source Integrity to create a
branch off of the revision you are locking.
In the Web interface only, select an option from the list:
Select Yes to create a new branch.
Select No to not create a new branch.
Select Confirm to be asked for confirmation of the action to
be taken if branch creation is required.
Create Branch if Variant causes Source Integrity to create a branch
off of the revision you are locking, if you are working in a variant
sandbox. This option is available only through the graphical user
interface and command line interface.
To apply the lock with the selected options, click OK. To apply locks to
multiple files, click OK to All.
A padlock symbol appears next to the revision number, and your user
name and the date/time you locked the revision display in the Locked
column.
You can unlock a revision without checking it back into the archive.
Unlocking a revision does not discard any changes you have made;
however, resynchronizing or reverting the member would discard those
changes.
