Updating and Committing

In this section:

To update files in your workspace, click on the Update the incoming changes icon. To commit all changes made in the default Workspace, click on the Commit all outgoing changes icon.

You can add comments clarifying changes in your commit or choose a previously entered comment. In the Commit wizard, you can also deselect some sources from the commit by unchecking them.

If there are some conflicting changes in the file, double-clicking on the file opens the source code in the Compare editor. You can see both incoming and outgoing files in the Main Editing Area side by side. In this editor, you can manually edit changes you want to keep or remove, and save the file.

If you want to overwrite the changes in your workspace, right-click the specific file or folder and select Overwrite and update.

If you want to overwrite the changes made on the server by your version of the file, select Overwrite and commit.

Preventing Files from Committing

Some files do not necessarily need to be stored in their latest version or committed from the local workspaces. Such files may be the outcome files or other. For such situations, MDS offers a function to ignore changes in the selected files.

To access this function, you must right-click the selected file and select Team, and then Add to svn:ignore.

In the Add Resource to svn:ignore window, specify which files you want to include, and click OK.
