there's a feature called VCS Groups. You can add files to different groups and perform the vcs-related operations on the files the together.. If you change the VCS Groups Settings property "auytoAddition", then any file modified within the IDE will be put into the <default Group>. You can move it elsewhere later or perform the commit on all files together.. VCS Groups can be used as a 1/4 workaround for the missing feature. 2 things: a. Once added, files stay in the vcs group so there is no indication of which files have been modified. b. rightclick->commit on the group causes a popup window to appear for each file (comments for commit). in vs.net there's a nice "one comment for all". It also makes sense if you choose to commit a bunch of files at once you probably might want to enter same comment... re 1. vcs groups are considered short-term storage, once you commit or otherwise decide you don't need the group, just delete it. re 2. This depends on the implementation of the underlying vcs filesystem. The built-in client shows just one dialog for all files in the group. The command-line generic module shows a dialog for each filesystem. I believe this is being worked on to get rid of the limitation. Please note that there's one technological limitation. If you combine files from filesystems provided by different modules you will always get more dialogs.. Eg. if you have a pvcs filesystem and cvs filesystem files in one group it's necessary to show 2 different dialogs since each version control system has different requirements.. |
