3.3. Managing Guvnor Resources

Available for Guvnor resources that are not synchronized with the Guvnor repository master copies. These resources may not have synchronized due to local changes and/or changes to the master copy. Performing the Update action replaces the local file contents with the current contents from the Guvnor repository master copies.

Available for local files that are not associated with a Guvnor repository master copy. Choosing the Add action launches the Add in Guvnor wizard. The first page of the wizard asks for the selection of the target Guvnor repository and provides the option of creating a new Guvnor repository connection. Once the target Guvnor repository is chosen, the wizard asks for the folder location to add the selection files. Clicking on the Finish button adds the selected files to the Guvnor repository and creates an association between the local and Guvnor repository files.

Enabled for Guvnor repository associated files that have local changes. The Commit action will write the changes back to the associated Guvnor repository files and update the association for the new revision created.

If a local change is based on an older revision of a file than is currently in the Guvnor repository, the Commit action will ask whether you wish to overwrite the current version in the Guvnor repository with the local content. When such conflicts occur, you should use the Eclipse Guvnor version tools and the Eclipse standard tools to determine the differences and merge content based on the current version.
