View File/Project History

Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere Hosted keeps a record of changes made to a file or project since it was initially added or created. Changes of a file or project are tracked with version numbers which increase as revisions undergo. This enables you to view your history of changes and go back to any history version of the file or project.

The file history includes history of all significant events of the file, such as the creation of the file, checkin of the file, branch of the file, etc.

The project history includes history of all significant events of the project and its descendants, such as the creation of the project, addition of its descendants, checkin of descendants, etc. It can be viewed by item or by version:

• When you view history by item. The History Explorer displays these events with name of the item, user who triggers the event, date of event, version number and the action.
   
• When you view history by version.  The History Explorer displays all versions of the project (not including the versions of its descendants). Every version in the project history corresponds to a change set that represents a particular point of changes. For each change set, you can view its details and  retrieve any earlier version of items included in the change set.

When you add, check in or delete a set of related work items in a project at a time, these related items are regarded as one change set that corresponds to a single version number of the project. Therefore, when you operate on a number of files in a project at a time, the version number of the project increases only by one.
