[platform-vcm-dev] Changes to project configuration released

[James_Moody@xxxxxxx]

CVS-specific project configuration changes have been released. This 
involved re-writing the configuration dialog and adding an action to the 
repositories view.

Summary:

There are three supported workflows for starting to work with CVS:

(a) Your project is not shared but has CVS/ directories.
        You may have gotten this project from a tarball or the CVS 
command-line client. We auto-detect the CVS/ directories and automatically 
set up the appropriate sharing for you.
        Available from Project->Share with Team...

(b) Your project is not shared and has no CVS/ directories.
        This is the common case of creating a project, doing some work, 
and then deciding to share it. You can now either choose from a list of 
existing repository locations or type in new information. In either case, 
we make sure that the project does NOT already exist locally. This is for 
an initial release.
        Available from Project->Share with Team...

(c) You want to work with a project that's already shared in a repository.
        Find the project in the CVS repositories view and right-click.
        Either Checkout, or Checkout As...
        Checkout will check the module out into a project with the same 
name as the module.
        Checkout As... will prompt you to enter the name of the local 
project, in the case that you want it to differ from the module name.
        In either case, if you want a specific branch or version of the 
module, just find it in the repositories view and check it out.


I've given each of the scenaria a brief run through, but if anyone sees 
any bugs, please log them again the VCM component.


Fixed Bugs:

7407: Need error reporting for connection creation
7408: Need to pick from existing connections list
7413: Avoid use of word "Connection"
7451: Import+Checkout: local file is overwritten by remote
