Managing change and releases for shared resources

You can use the Configuration Management application to manage change to resources in a collaborative development environment. Managing change includes setting up unique working environments for individuals or teams, creating snapshots of projects at specific points in time, reviewing and approving changes to resources, and making changes visible to other teams or individuals.

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.

About this task

In a serial development environment, you share one workspace with other team members.

In a parallel development environment, you and your team members might have individual workspaces whose contents are derived from a common workspace. To make changes in your workspace visible to other team members, you deliver your changes to the common workspace, which is also called a flow target. Then, from the common workspace, your team members can accept those changes into their own workspaces to ensure they have the most recent versions of resources.
