Adding working directories

Add working directories to specify the local or network directories to map repositories to. When you check out files, writable copies are added to the corresponding working directory.

1. Choose Tools > Working Directories.

The Working Directories dialog box opens.

2. Click Add.

The Surround SCM Repository Browser opens.

3. Select a branch and repository and click OK.

The Add Working Directory dialog box opens.

4. Enter a Working directory path or click Browse to select a directory.

Working directory conflicts occur if you reuse a working directory. To resolve a conflict, create a new local directory or select a directory that is not used for other repositories.

5. Select Allow child repositories to inherit this working directory if you want child repositories to use the same directory.

The working directory is automatically set when subrepositories are added.

6. Click OK.

The working directory is set.
