Change sets flow through the Rational Team Concert™ source control system in a way that reflects your team's organization and the relationships among components under development. When you use Rational Team Concert source control change flow tools, you can work in isolation when necessary, keeping your changes from propagating beyond your workspace until you're sure they're suitable for wider exposure, and avoiding the disruptions that can be caused when other developers make changes to resources on which your work depends. These tools also make it easy to combine the work of other team members with your own when you're ready, make your own work available to others in a variety of ways, and undo (temporarily or permanently) changes that prove to be problematic in your workspace.
The types of operations permitted on a change set depend on whether the change set is classified as incoming, outgoing, or neither.
