Checkpointing

The checkpoint operation saves a personal version of an object for your use only.

Procedure

  1. If you need to find a file, directory, or project, see Finding an object.
  2. Right-click the object that you want to checkpoint and choose Checkpoint.

    If you checkpoint a file with attributes that must be set, the Properties dialog box displays the values to set before the checkpoint is successful. Make the necessary changes, and then click Checkpoint. Rational® Synergy saves the changes and attempts to checkpoint the file.

    When you checkpoint a file or directory, the checkpoint occurs without confirmation from you. When you checkpoint a project, you are asked to confirm the checkpoint.

    After moving the object to the checkpoint state, you must perform a manual checkout to create the new working version of the object. This action differs from the ccm checkpoint command where a new working version of the checkpointed object is checked out automatically.
