Hi all,

Is there any way by which we can remove the baslines from components in RTC source control. I have deleted stream but i cannot be able to delete the component. I know, we cannot delete the component. Now, the issue is that, in components i have baselines and in those baselines i have some source codes files which i want to remove. Is there any way by which i can remove those files from baselines.

Components and baselines cannot be deleted.
See:
Support deleting components from the repository (163568)
Provide the ability to hide (archive) baselines that are no longer needed (170855)

Note: If you need to delete file content (ex: due to sensitive data or other security/legal reasons) you can do so by following these steps:
https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/index.jsp?re=1&topic=/com.ibm.team.scm.doc/topics/t_scm_eclipse_delete_file.html&scope=null
This way even though the baseline still remains, the source code that you absolutely need to remove from the database will no longer be available. Note: You need to be an admin to do this, and once done the content is no longer recoverable.

As far as I am aware baselines can not be deleted.
