Team > Check-in: does it do anything?


Patrick Renaud (106143) | asked Jan 11 '08, 11:08 a.m.
It seems like if the Team > Check-in operation does nothing. Is it normal? It looks like if the user does not have to check-in anything to make the local work available (visible) to others.

Also, I haven't been able to see the list of all the changes I made to a given file as part of of Work Item. I have made several check-ins but the History only shows the latest update I have ever made.

Please tell me this is abnormal... Coming from a UCM background I am a pit perplex when confronted to this behavior.

If you have the auto-checkin preference enabled, then you do not need to
manually check anything in.

Right now you will only see the cumulative effect of all the changes made
to a file as part of a changeset. The idea is that the changeset
represents a single logical change and most of the time that is what you
are interested in.

Having said that, the incremental changes are stored in the repository
right now, however there is no UI that exposes them.
