HowTo see date annotated changes of Jazz repository
Hello Jazz experts,
I have a few questions:
1. Does Jazz defaults auto-commit workspace to repo?
I am asking because I was running Jazz. My workspace got corrupted and I deleted the whole folder. Now when I load the repo into the workspace, it seems to be the first commit I had made.
Should I have been manually commiting workspace to repo?
2. If there were auto-commits by default, how can I visualize these commits in jazz so I can regain my workspace.
3. When I load a repo into the workspace, is it the head that is loded?
Thanks.

Hi
I have changed my settings a few times, so I don't know the defaults. I tend to set Windows->Preferences->Team->Jazz Source Control->Check-in policies to auto-checkin. This means that every time I save a file - it will be copied from my Eclipse workspace on my local machine to my repository workspace on the server.
If you do change the settings above - it will be "committed" when you save.
Go to the Team Artifacts view, create a new repository workspace (assuming you don't have one already) set it to point to the components you were working on (there might be just a default component). Then right-button and Load the repository workspace (that will copy the code down to your machine and your Eclipse workspace).
There are a few different options to load - right button on the workspace, select load and you will be able to see the options. You can also use a right button to Show Repository Files - which will list all the files on the repository workspace - that is probably the quickest way to check which of your files are available on the server
