The ChangeBrowser
We recommend to read the relevant section in the Guide for
an overview of AnyJs built in VersionControl/AccessControl systems.
The ChangeBrowser enables you to view the history of savepoints (PopupMenu:
"Changes.Make Savepoint") made to a file or a directory.
It is possible to view diffs to your current version of a file or to rollback to
older versions.
Note that this dialogue has a "specify query"-"perform query" logic. If
you change some of the query data (such as "comment substring"), press "Search"
to ensure the change is reflected in a new query.
To view changes to a file ..
- Select a file in the FileTree
- Choose "Changes.to former Versions" from the PopupMenu.
- Select one of the history entries in the table of the ChangeBrowser window
- Press "Diff to current" to view a diff.
Note:
For technical reasons (the way we save diffs), the most recent savepoint
does not show in the Change Browser. If you need to view the latest savepoint made to a file,
view the ".\JSRS\xxxxx.last" file which contains it in an unencoded way.
To view differences to the latest savepoint, just do another "Make Savepoint"
on that file/directory before opening the ChangeBrowser.
The filetypes which are subject to VersionControl can be specified in
Global Properties.
