Using Source Control and Resource Manager at the same time

thekofler Aug 27, 2014 12:28 AM

I have several RoboHelp projects under SVN Subversion Source Control. I would also like to share common topics across these RoboHelp projects using the Resource Manager using a shared folder location.

I would like to put these shared topics under version control as well. However, I assume that Source Control and Resource Manager work independently and that when we check in or check out a project under Source Control, the shared topics are not checked into Source Control.

In order to have the shared topics under Source Control, I want to put the shared topics in a folder that is part of of RoboHelp project, sort of a master RoboHelp project, and put that project under Source Control, as per the following diagram:

Just wondering if anyone has a better solution than this, or can see any issues with doing it this way?

As far as I know, the resource manager does not support version control. If you map the version control folder to a local folder, you can use that in RoboHelp. But I'm afraid that any changes in the resource manager files will require you to manually check them out first. This is how I'm doing it anyway.

Kind regards,
