How can I incorporate vendor source changes to CS-RCS?

Top  Previous  Next

This scenario occurs when you make further development on sources purchased from a 3rd party or downloaded from the Internet. Sometimes you get changes made by the vendor to the original sources. To incorporate the changes to your modified sources:

1.

Create a branch at the point where you got the original sources. (Usually, revision 1.0 of all files.)

2.

Switch to the branch.

3.

Remove all files from the work folders.

4.

Copy the new revision of the sources to the work folders. Click F5.

5.

Files marked with the New status are removed in this version. Select these files and execute File | Delete.

6.

Execute Project | Check-in. This will check-in all Modified files and will add all files that were added in this version.

7.

Launch the CS-RCS Administrator to merge the branch to the main trunk.
