What is the MKS equivalent of SVN Update?


I am contracting at a company that uses MKS. I have used SVN in the past as well as Mercurial and Git but must use MKS currently(so far I can't seem to find any documentation on it or best practices).

I want to know what the equivalent of SVN Update in MKS is? I have tried resynchronize but all too often when I do that MKS wants to overwrite files that I have been working on.


Solution

  • When you're working on source, you have to 'Check Out/F2' the file first. I assume you didn't do that? If not, you'll have to move your work somewhere else, check out the file and then copy your work back over the checked out version. Then you can check it back in.

    Note that you'll have to create a change package first, this is what all of your 'Check Outs' will be done against. After all the changes are done, you'll need to submit the Change Package.
