Words to know
- Project
- Your class or team, with its own files.
- Check out
- Take a file so only you can change it.
- Changed
- You saved new work that your team does not have yet.
- Check in
- Give the file back so your team gets your change.
- Available
- Nobody has this file, so you can check it out.
- Version
- Each check in is kept, so you can go back to it.
- Side versions
- If someone saves a file another person had checked out, or saves from an old copy, their work is kept beside the main version. Nothing is thrown away.
- Undo check out and Force check in
- Undo check out gives a file back without saving. A mentor, a CAD lead, an instructor or a site admin can use Force check in on a file someone forgot; their unsaved changes are kept as a side version.
