Showing parallel versions

A parallel conflict occurs when there are parallel versions of a file or directory. If you find parallel versions in your project, you can compare and merge the files, and view the history and properties of the files. Depending on the action you are taking, you might start the Parallels dialog box intentionally or Rational Synergy might start it automatically to inform you about the parallels.

Procedure

  1. If you need to find a file, directory, or task, see Finding an object.
  2. For a file or directory, right-click over the object and select Show Parallels. The Parallels dialog box displays the objects with parallels and the merge candidates for the object with parallels.

    Use the toolbar at the top of the dialog to compare files, merge files, view the history of an object or release, and view properties.

    For a task that you are ready to complete, right-click over the task and select Complete. If the task contains objects with parallel versions, the Parallels dialog box displays the conflicts.

    You can merge files or ignore the parallel(s) and continue to complete the task by clicking Complete.
