DESCRIPTION<br />

Just as you check in a source file to preserve the changes made to it from one revision to another,<br />

you can also track the evolution of an entire project. In Source Integrity, this process is called<br />

checkpointing.<br />

Checkpointing a project creates a new revision of the project and adds it to the project history.<br />

When you checkpoint a project, you save all the information needed to recreate the project<br />

<strong>com</strong>pletely at any time in the future. The saved information includes the project structure and the<br />

list of members with their revision numbers.<br />

If you are using the database repository, all checkpoints are transactional. This means that a<br />

checkpoint records the structure and contents of the project at the time the checkpoint starts. It<br />

does not include anything added to the project or its subprojects after the checkpoint starts, such<br />

as check ins or submitted change packages. To ensure that only <strong>com</strong>plete change packages are<br />

included in your project checkpoints, your administrator must enable change package reviews. For<br />

more information on change package reviews, see the Source Integrity Enterprise User Guide.<br />

Note:<br />

Options<br />

Checkpointing a project recursively checkpoints all subprojects, creating new subproject<br />

revisions. If you do not want to create new subproject revisions during the checkpoint,<br />

configure them as build subprojects first. See the si configuresubproject <strong>com</strong>mand<br />

for more details.<br />

This <strong>com</strong>mand takes the universal options available to all si <strong>com</strong>mands, as well as some general<br />

options. See the options reference page for descriptions.<br />
