What is the Shed and how do I get to it?
2 answers
I just noticed a directory, .jazzShed, in my local workspace directory. It has the version of one of the files I changed outside of Eclipse (and did not refresh) which was subsequently overwritten when I accepted a change set containing the file. It looks to be a transient data store because my other workspace doesn't even have the directory.
The shed is a facility that holds contents that have not been checked in and are overwritten. If enabled, it augments Eclipse's local history when working with contents outside of Eclipse. It is indeed the copy that was overwritten. Over time, it will also be eventually cleaned up.
