Import Change History into New RTC Repository?
We are considering a transition from CC to RTC for a large C++ system (10K files, 3M lines). We don't want to lose the many, many years of change history (versions of files and comments on the changes). Can the files be imported from CC to RTC with change history imported as well? Thanks in advance!
One answer
Currently, no ... but we are looking into it.
Importing the history of individual files is theoretically reasonably
straightforward ... but importing all potentially interesting
configurations cannot be done automatically, because of the
power/flexibility of ClearCase config specs.
What you can do in RTC-2.* (with the ClearCase Synchronizer) is import a
selected set of configurations, as indicated by a set of labels or
baselines.
