The IDE provides support for working with Concurrent Versioning System (CVS) and any other version control system (VCS) that has a command-line interface. You can mount a directory that is under version control as a version control filesystem. You can work with version controlled files like you would with any other files and also call VCS commands on them from within the IDE.
In VCS filesystems, Explorer nodes contain VCS status information in brackets for the files the nodes represent. You can right-click these nodes to access the VCS commands.
The IDE simplifies work with version controlled files with features such as:
If your development team uses CVS, you can connect to the CVS repository using:
If your team uses a different version control system, you can use the IDE's generic version control system support to work with that version control system. You can:
Unless you are using the IDE's built-in CVS client, you must have a command-line client for your version control system installed on your system in order to use the IDE's VCS support.
