Versioned projects

Aversioned projectisessentiallyafolderthatcontainsacollectionofrelatedfileswhosechangesare

tracked.Whenyoucreateaversionedproject,allchangestotheprojectarerecordedandstoredinthe

project history.Youcanusetheprojecthistorytoreviewchangesmadetotheproject,andevenrevert

toapreviousversionifsomethinggoeswrong.

Asyouworkonyourprojectfiles,youcancommitfilesintheprojectatanytime.Whenyoucommitfiles

intheproject,asnapshotoftheprojectissavedasaversion,alongwithyourname,yourcommitmes-

sage,andthedate.Thestatusofeachfile-whetheritwasadded,modified,etc.-isrecordedaswell.

OLConnectusesGitintegrationtomaintainthehistoryofaversionedprojectinalocalrepository.Pro-

jectscanbecreatedandcommittedfromwithinOLConnectDesignerandDataMapper.

Creating versioned projects

VersionedprojectsarecreatedfromtheProjectmenuatthetopofthescreeninOLConnectDesigner

andDatamapper.

Youhavetwooptions:

l

Createanewversionedprojectthatisonlystoredlocally.

l

Cloneaprojectthatexistsonacloud-basedplatformintoalocalrepository.

Howtocloneaprojectisexplainedin"Versionedprojectsinthecloud"onpage97.
