Versioning projects in the repository
You can version a project in the repository without adding the project to
the Workbench.
- Switch to the
CVS Repository Exploring perspective or add the
CVS Repositories view to the current perspective.
- In the CVS Repositories view, expand a repository location and find the
project you wish to version.
- Right-click on the project and select Tag as Version.
- Enter the name of the version you wish to create.
- Click OK to close the dialog and create the version.
Tip: You can browse existing versions of your project by clicking
on the Details button in the Tag Resources dialog. Clicking Refresh
from Repository should populate the Existing Versions list. It is sometimes
helpful to see existing versions before naming your new version.
Tip: If the version tag you wish to apply already exists on some of
the resources to be versioned, you can perform a Tag with Existing instead.
This operation will move an existing tag to the selected resources and can be
used to move both version and branch tags. If the tag you wish to apply is not
show in the list, you can click Refresh from Repository. If this doesn't
find the tag, you can click Configure Tags which opens a dialog that
allows you to search for tags on specific files in the repository.
