Getting stream name when showing File History for repository
RTC allow us to see all revisions of a file cross repository, showing graphics and stuff.. but i can't see the stream name for that particular revision..
is that correct? i'm asking because i understand that a revision (that is inside a change set) can be found in multiple streams, but RTC use diferent colors on the graphs (on history) what let me think that each color represent a stream.
tks!

The colors are just a way to let you more easily visually follow a particular line of descent in the graph ... a version does not in any way "belong" to any particular stream. For example, you can create a branch in the history even if you only have one workspace in the entire repository ... just change a file, check it in, suspend the change-set, change the file again, resume the old change set, and resolve the conflict.

Hi Geoff,
tks for your reply. Ok i understand, but RTC can show me in wich streams a revision of a file exists? i know that i can check if a change set exists in a stream by using "locate change set" option, but this will be painful if i have multiple streams (if a have 6 streams, need to check 6 times).. there is no way to see this information in a consolidated way?
tks!

Then you will want to upgrade to RTC-4.0 when it ships ... the "locate change set" function has been greatly enhanced, to provide you with exactly the kind of feedback you are looking for. Try it out in the jazz.net sandbox, or download one of the current 4.0 milestone builds.
