file metadata
Hi
We have moved from SVN to RTC as source code repository. In SVN we had the ability to add attributes to a file under source control. We used this to control our build engine. However since moving to RTC we can't seem to understand how to add metadata to a file. Does anyone know if this is supported or not? - if it is where is it? |

Hi There is currently no generic method for adding attributes to files in SCM. That being said we do track the encoding, mime type, executable and modification stamps. However you cannot trivially add new attributes yourself. As an alternative you could create a properties file in the root of your project that will describe extended properties for files in the project. Then your build engine could read that file and interpret the properties from it. - Dmitry |
Could you describe a bit what properties you added and how they were used?
