If you are assigned the Change Set Administrator role,
the Change Set Collaborator role, or both, depending on your role,
you can complete, share, discard, modify, and reverse other team members'
change sets.
Before you begin
You should be familiar with project
areas, configuration spaces, snapshots, workspaces,
and change sets, which are described in Management of shared resources.
In
the Configuration
Management application,
you must be assigned the Change Set Administrator role, the Change
Set Collaborator role, or both.
About this task
You cannot do an action on an individual resource in a
change set; you can only do an action on the entire change set.
In
a collaborative development environment where users share workspaces,
resources in change sets are locked and cannot be modified. If the
owner of a change set in a shared workspace is unavailable to discard,
complete, or share a change set, as a Change Set Administrator, Change
Set Collaborator, or both, you can do these actions so that the resources
in the change set are unlocked and can be modified by other users.
You can also share the change sets of other team members, and create
a change set that reverses the changes that were shared in a specific
change set.
Procedure
- Open the Configuration Explorer view:
from the Current Configuration Context menu
near the upper right of the page, select Explore Configurations.
- Navigate to the workspace that contains the change set
to work on.
- In the workspace editor, click the Change Sets tab.
- In the upper right of the Change Sets section, click the Switch
between the current user and all users icon to toggle
to multi-user mode. In multi-user mode, you can view and
do actions on all the change sets in the current workspace. In single-user
mode, you can view and do actions only on your change sets in the
workspace.
- In the Actions column, click the
action to do on the change set:
- To undo the changes to the resources in the change set and
delete the change set, click Discard.
- To deliver the changes to the workspace that is associated
with this change set, click Share.
- To prevent further changes to this change set, click Complete.
- To change the name of the change set, click Rename.
- To create a change set that reverses the changes that were
previously shared in the selected change set, click Reverse
This Change Set.
