Re: [platform-vcm-dev] Change to Team CVS Replace with... semantics

It has been brough to my attention that my previous post was a bit unclear
as to the new semantics of Replace with. Let me clearify.

- A project shared with CVS can consist both of resources that are shared
with CVS and resources that are not.

Replace with will never effect resources that are not shared.

- Those that are shared typically have a remote counterpart unless they
have been added to cvs control in the local workspace but have never been
committed (i.e. they are candidates for sharing but are not really shared
yet).

Replace with will not effect these added resources except that they will no
longer be candidates for sharing (however, they can easily be made
candidates for sharing by performing a Team/Add to Version Control).

- Resources that are shared will be replaced if the local state differes
from that of the remote. Otherwise, they will be uneffected.

Hope this clearifies things,

Michael

When using the CVS Replace with.. operations (Replace with latest or tag),
resources under CVS control will be replaced if the resource on the server
differs from the local resource but unmanaged, ignored and added resources
will no longer be deleted. After the operation, added resource will become
unmanaged and unmanaged resources will have tasks in the task view
indicating their existance.
