Workgroup Synchronization

Change Synchronization

CS-RCS supports two methods of change synchronization:

  • Exclusive locking model – All work files are read-only. A user must lock the file in order to edit it. When the user check-in the changes, he or she must unlock the file in order to enable other users to edit the file.
  • Concurrent changes model (CVS) – All users may always edit all files. When a file is checked-in, CS-RCS merges the edits automatically into the repository. In the case of conflicts, CS-RCS activates the CSDiff tool to visually display and solve the conflicts. (Conflicts may happen if the same line has been changed by two users.)

 You may select the desired method on project basis.
