Flow target in a stream

What does flow target in a stream signifies? I have a Stream A which has flow target of Stream B. I suppose if I deliver anything on Stream A, it should also get delivered to Stream B (or few selected components ) should get delivered but it doesn't happen this way. Please explain in detail.

A flow target is something that you push changesets to. It can be a stream or a repository workspace.

If you deliver to a stream, it doesn't automatically deliver to a stream that it is connected to. The remedy for your case is to create a repository workspace which has both streams as flow targets. You then accept from stream A into the repository workspace and deliver to stream B. This also makes it possible to verify that your changes actually work.

Effectively, that would mean that making one stream the flow target of another is useless, which makes me doubt my understanding, so apply the usual bit of caution instead of blindly believing me. :wink:
