Accept a change set context?


Scott Chapman (3216547) | asked Feb 10 '11, 11:29 a.m.
So, I am a tad confused.

I have a couple of workspace repos, and I have delivered some work in change sets that are associated with a work item.

I now want to accept those change sets to another workspace that I have, but it isn't clear how to do that.

In the list of change sets in the work item there is an "Accept..." option on the context menu. But the target is ambiguous...

Hi Scott:

>In the list of change sets in the work item there is an "Accept..." option on the context menu. But the target is ambiguous...

The target is your repository workspace showing up in the pending changes view - the repo workspace in the pending changes view that contains the same component the change sets you are accepting come from.

When you say "delivered", I assume you mean "delivered to a stream". If
so, the easiest way to pull them in is to have that stream be the flow
target of your workspace, and you'll see those change sets in the
"Incoming" folder of the Pending Changes view (you have to load that
workspace to see it in the Pending Changes view).

Alternatively, you can make the other workspace the flow target of your
workspace, and accept directly from the other workspace.

Or you can click "accept" on those change sets in the work item, and it
will accept those changes into the workspace that currently has the
component containing those changes loaded.

Cheers,
Geoff

That's not the best if I am just looking to move a specific change set around.

The issue I had is that I have a number of workspaces listed in my pending changes view...

I believe you should get a dialog prompting which workspace you want to accept the change set. Do you not get that?

There's also a bug where selecting multiple workspaces will only accept from the first workspace selected.

I think I ran into that bug. Makes sense now.

Thanks!
