Managing Projects, Sandboxes, and Members
Checkpointing saves a copy of the project in the project’s history as
a revision, including the list of members along with their revision
numbers and project and member attributes.
You can use the project’s revision number to keep track of your
projects, but to simplify post-release maintenance, use a label to
identify significant project development milestones when you
checkpoint a project.
For example, if you checkpoint a project and label it with a release
identifier (for example, Release 6.2), you can find and recreate
that particular development state more easily.
Note
Checkpointing a project affects the project only; it does not check in
every member of the project.
If you are working in a sandbox, issuing a checkpoint command
checkpoints the sandbox’s master project.
If you want to create a variant or build sandbox, you must have a
checkpointed project to start with.

1 With a Project or Sandbox window open, select the project or
sandbox.
