Check In Command (Source Menu)

Command Remarks

Updates the checked-out file with modifications made to it. Checkin on a project is applied to all checked-out files within the project.

When you check in a changed file, Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted creates a new version of the file in file history.

When you check in an unchanged file, Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted may behave in three ways:

Check In. Adds the unchanged file as a new version to file history.
Undo Check Out. Performs the Undo Check Out command and do not add a new version to file history.
Ask. Displays the Check In Unchanged File dialog box asking what you want to do for each unchanged file.

You can set the default behavior in Check in unchanged files option in Tools->Options->General Tab.

In Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted, a merge may occur at Check In command (only when the current repository is set to allow multiple checkouts). If multiple users have checked out a file and another user checks in the file with changes, when you subsequently check in the file, the difference among the latest version, the checked-out version and your local copy of the file will be merged into a new version of the file in Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted. This is a three-way merge which is carried out automatically.

The way how Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted determines if your local copy is different from the copy in Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted repository can be set in Compare files by option in Tools->Options->Files Tab.
