CVS: Switch to Branch Dialog Box
The CVS Switch to Branch dialog box enables you to switch the selected files
or folders in your local working directory to either the trunk or another
branch. Revisions are not merged when you switch from a branch to the trunk
or from the trunk to a branch.
You access this dialog box by right-clicking a file or folder (e.g. in the Projects,
Files, or Favorites window) and choosing CVS > Switch to Branch.
- CVS Status Labels for files in the Projects, Files or Favorites windows can
indicate if you are working from the repository trunk or a specific branch.
To activate CVS Status Labels, choose View > Show Versioning Labels from
the main menu.
Select one of the following actions:
- Switch to Trunk. If selected, your local working files are
switched to the trunk.
- Switch to Branch. If selected, your local working files are
switched to the specified branch. Enter the name of the branch in the text
field or click Browse to see a list of the available branches.
