How To Use Subversion in the IDE

Go Up to History Manager

This section contains procedure topics that describe common tasks you can perform using the Subversion Integration in the IDE.

Subversion Information Is Available By Default

Opening a versioned file in the IDE makes the Subversion information available on the History Manager. Here and on the Project Manager, you can invoke common SVN tasks (such as Update and Commit) when you are working with files in a repository that is under Subversion.

Note: To perform common version-control operations such as Add, Delete, and Rename, you should perform the operation first in the IDE (using either the Project Manager or History Manager, as appropriate). Then Subversion automatically schedules these operations for the next Commit that you perform.
