Merging Changes from a Baseline or Stream Version

If the latest (tip) stream version is not stable, or has not been tested, you can merge from a baseline or an earlier version of a stream.

Merging from a Stream Version

Stream versions are automatically created every time a delivery is made to a repository. In this use case version 2 of the child feature stream is merged into the mainline and not the latest (tip) version (#3):

When you select a source stream in the Merge wizard, do one of the following in the Merge changes from this stream box:

• Click Select. In the Select Stream dialog box click Select and use the Changesets dialog box to select a stream version.

• Enter the stream ID and version number in this format:

PRODUCT:STREAM_NAME;VERSION

For example:

QLARIUS:JAVA_BRANCHA;2

Merging from a Baseline

You can merge from any release baseline. The process is identical to merging from a stream version except that you:

• Choose the option Merge a baseline into a stream at the start of the wizard.

• Specify the baseline ID instead of the stream ID and version.
