Checking out entire project

Ashley_Drew Sep 22, 2011 11:12 AM

I'm trying to get RoboHelp 9 set up with Subversion. Thus far I'm using the RH UI to do everything, but I've seen posts from others saying they check the entire project in and out of source control. Can comeone please elaborate on how that works? I know that there are some files that you don't add to source control, such as the .cpd file. So how do you set everything up? Are you checking the folder that contains the project in and out? If so, how do you omit the files that are supposed to be excluded?

Hi,

You can check out the project from the RoboHelp GUI. Click Check out all to check out the entire project.

You can also use the client to check out all the project files at once. Typically, you would not integrate the project with version control. You just check in the files after you've closed RoboHelp.

For more info on RoboHelp and Subversion, see also http://www.adobe.com/devnet/robohelp/articles/robohelp_subversion.html

Greet,

Does anyone know specifically which files I need to exclude when checking a project into source control? As I mentioned, I know that I'm supposed to exclude the CPD file, but are there any others that I should exclude?

You can include all the other files. RoboHelp creates some temporary
files, but they are deleted when you close the project.

Kind regards,
