The Pending Change Sets tab contains a list of all changes, anywhere in the working folders, which are waiting to be checked in to the repository. This provides a constant, visual reminder of items that need to be checked in.
Vault allows one direct change per item in a single transaction. In any given change set, an item will only be listed once. For example, you cannot both rename a file and move it in the same change set.
Multiple items can be selected and operations will apply to the items selected.
Comments can be created for the entire change set or for individual items within the change set. If an item does not have an individual comment associated with its action, the change set comment is automatically applied to it.
Right-click on a file or folder to bring up a Pending Change Set menu for the selected items.
Pending actions can be undone by selecting the action and hitting the delete key, using the Pending Change Set menu or the Pending Change Set toolbar.
The Pending Change Sets tab consists of a list and a toolbar.
List
The Pending Change Sets list contains the following information.
Item The full local path of the file or folder name on which the operation is taking place.
Details For file modifications, this is the size of the change (e.g., +9KB or -1KB). If the file has a state of Needs Merged, it is listed here instead of the Type column since the type is Modified. For folders, it is the size of all the files being added.
Type The type of change. This could be one of the following: Modified, Unmodified, Add, Delete, Branch, Label, Share, Move or Rename.
Repository Path The full path in the repository that corresponds to the item.
Comment The comment that will be applied to this particular item when it is committed / checked in. To change or enter the item comment, right-click on a selected item (or items) to bring up the Pending Change Set menu and click on Edit Item Comment.
Toolbar
The standard toolbar for Pending Change Sets contain the following commands.
Commit The Commit command allows you to Check In/Commit changes to the repository.
Change Set Comment You can add or edit the change set comment. Click OK to accept the comment or Cancel to revert to the comment that already exists.
Undo The Undo command will undo the selected operation. Modified files are reverted to their previous contents before they were edited, and if the file is checked out, it brings up the Undo Check Out dialog box on the selected item.
Diff The Diff command brings up the Diff dialog box for the selected file in the list.
Show Merge Brings up the merge window on the selected file. This is only available if the status of the file is Needs Merge or Merged.
Rescan working folders Searches all working folders on the local machine for files that have changed, and puts them in the pending change set if they were not already there. This is available only in CVS mode (when Require Check Out before Check In is off)
