Part 12: Source Code Manager 401 • The other developers are automatically notified of this check-in operation. They can now update their local copy. The SCM supports teamwork and it allows you to find out the history of all the modifications. The SCM can also be used to manage and control the elements shared between several projects. Creating the repository To share a project via the Source Code Manager, a repository must be created. This repository must be created once only on a server. This repository can be created: • when installing WEBDEV. • when creating a project that is using the SCM. • when importing a project into the SCM. • whenever you want, from WEBDEV directly or from the SCM administrator. The repository can be installed in the following modes: • HFSQL Classic, • HFSQL Client/Server, • Cloud. The Cloud mode allows you to access the source codes of projects from anywhere, at any time. Visit www.pcscloud.net for more details. • SCM Drive. This mode allows you to have the Source Code Manager in the cloud for all your WEBDEV projects. Visit www.scmdrive.com for more details. ▶ In the next lesson, our repository will be created when importing a project into the SCM. Remark We advise you to make backup copies of the repository on a regular basis. To do so, you must: • connect as administrator to the management tool of SCM. • on the "Management" pane, in the "Backups" group, select "Full backup".
