CXInsight supports a regress function which allows a user
to return files in a mounted workspace to a previous
recorded state. This is useful in fault finding, or to
back out an incorrect change. Regression works in a
controlled manner, checking out files which can be checked
in to make the regression permanent, or uncheckedout to
return to the state that existed before the regress.
Note; regress can not work on checked out files, so
all affected files must be checked in prior to using
regress. Regress is particularly effective when working on
a complete workspace.
Select the files(s), folder(s) or workspace you wish to
regress. All selections must be in a single workspace
mounted on your computer. Select 'Regress' from the right
click menu. The following dialog is shown;
The options 'Change', 'Date / time' and 'Label'
indicate the point in history to regress to. See the
separate sections
use change
numbers and use
revision labels for further information on these
concepts.
Change. If regressing
to a change, files which have changed since the specified
change number are checked out at the last revision checked
in up to and including this change. The change number is
entered in the 'Regress to' field.
Date / time. If
regressing to a date time, files which have changed since
the specified date / time are checked out at the last
revision checked in up to and including this time. The
date / time is specified by clicking select and choosing
the date time from the date picker dialog.
Label. If
regressing to a label, files with this label on non
current revisions are checked out. The label is specified
by clicking select and choosing the date time from the
label browse dialog. |
