Info

Glossary state A textual description, defined by the administrator, used to classify the condition of a revision in a history. For example, a document could initially have a state of “Draft”. As work progresses it might be changed to “Review” and eventually “Complete”. If no state is assigned to a revision, a default value of “Exp” (for Experimental) is used. strict locking A policy that enforces users to have a lock on a revision to perform a check in operation. subproject A project within a project. Subprojects are typically smaller components of a project, such as documentation or graphic files. subsandbox A sandbox within a sandbox. Subsandboxes are typically smaller components of a sandbox, such as documentation or graphic files. thawing Remove the frozen state of a member so that changes can again be made to the member information. The opposite of freezing. tip revision The most recent revision on a branch in a history. updating a member revision trunk The primary line of a file’s change history in a history. The first member of the trunk is always the original file checked into the archive. Ensures the most recent revision of a member is added to the list of members in a project/sandbox when checking in a member. user name The name VSky Software Manager knows you by. By default, user name is used as the author during check in. variant sandbox A sandbox that is created from a previous project checkpoint rather than the current contents of a project. When you want to branch to a variant development path, you create a variant sandbox . It is similar to creating a branch archive. Visual Difference window The main window of VSky Software Manager Visual Difference used to display the differences between text-based files or revisions. working file A file that contains a working copy of a checked out revision. Users edit and change the working file, not the revision itself. Changes to the working file are added to the history (as a new revision) when the working file is checked in. 218 > > > > > > > > > > > > > >
