To deliver changes from your work area to a stream:
Do one of the following:
Windows Explorer: right-click the folder in your work area from where you want to deliver to the stream and select Dimensions | Deliver.
Desktop client: right-click the stream root folder or a subfolder and select Deliver.
The Deliver from this Work Area field is populated with the work area root. If you select a subfolder, its path is highlighted.
If you select a work area that is not associated with a stream, in the Deliver changes to this Stream field select a stream.
Click Advanced.
To restrict the deliver operation to particular files do the following:
In Include local files enter expressions to restrict which files from the work area will be delivered to the repository.
In Exclude local files enter expressions to identify files in the work area that you want to exclude when delivering to the repository.
For details about using these filters see Using Wildcards to Include and Exclude Files and Folders.
Select the local changes that you want to include in the delivery: additions, deletions, modifications, and moves/renames.
If you have defined ignore rules but want to skip them for this delivery, select Disable restrictions from .dmignore file.
Click Next.
If a list of Additional streams from which to include content is displayed, the work area from which you are delivering has been updated from other streams and/or baselines. Deselect the stream(s) or baseline(s) whose files you do not want to deliver to the parent stream and click Next.
If there are conflicts between the work area and the stream you cannot continue with the deliver operation. To perform an update from the stream and resolve the conflicts click the link in the dialog box. The Update from Stream wizard opens, for details see Updating a Work Area from a Stream. After you have resolved the conflicts and updated your work area, try delivering again.
A list of changes is displayed including each revision’s work area filename, change type, and the conflict type and default resolution (if applicable).
On the Default options panel, optionally change the defaults values used when an item revision is delivered to the repository:
Comment. Enter the default comment for any new item revisions that are created.
Relate to request(s). Specify one or more default requests to be related in response to any new item revisions that are created.
Design part for new files. Select the part specification for the owning design part for new items created in this work area (unless overridden by any values set for a folder beneath the root folder in this work area).
Permissions after deliver. Select Make read only or Keep unchanged for the permissions to be set on a file after uploading to the repository.
Expand substitution variables: select Yes or No.
On the Selection options panel, optionally change the defaults values for each item revision that you select.
If you are deleting a revision, from the Removal Scope list select an option, such as delete all the item revisions from the stream. There are some restrictions, for example, you cannot delete a revision from a baseline or a revision that is related to an active request.
To view the changes that have been made to a revision, right click and select View.
Click Deliver.
