Where can I find/read about the RTC SCM internals?
I am interested in learning about how the data is organized, how the baslines / snapshots are organized Are there any wiki articles regarding this? |
Accepted answer
Hi Karthik,
You can learn more about RTC SCM here - http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/jazz-source-control-management/ I would encourage you to look at the online help and tutorials. There are many different ways to organize data in RTC source control. Basically, all the source code reside in components. Each component usually contains source code that are logically grouped together. A stream contains a set of components that can be built together to create a product. Baselines are created for components. By creating baselines, you are creating a configuration of the component that you can go back to. A snapshot is a collection of component baselines. If you need to go back in time to retrieve a particular configuration of your stream/workspace, you can create your workspace from the snapshot. I am giving a very generic answer here. Let us know if there is a specific question that I can answer. Karthik Krishnan selected this answer as the correct answer
Comments thank you! I am more interested in the internals of the files are stored / referred. Will check this document though

as I understand it, everything is stored as a delta (aka diff), and all stored in a SQL database. I believe these have an internal binary representation, not a text 'diff' file.
