associate

Associate a Role, Attribute or Label with a set of files or revisions.

Overview

When a file, or set of files is associated with a Role, for example, it is possible to then filter
subsequent operations based on the association. Useful for associating a subset of files with a group of people, such as all .html files with the role of "Web Designers", with a role filter in place, a branch could be created that contained only files of interest to the web designers.

ass[ociate] <controlspec> <specification>
 

Parameters

 
controlspec May be a Role, an Attribute, or a Label
specification A definition of the files to be included
