Check Out Dialog Box

See Also

• Check Out

The Check Out command retrieves writable files from SAW and places them in your working folder, so that you can modify them. SAW lists the file as checked out in SAW Explorer.

Dialog Box Items

Comment

Type a brief description of the reason for the check out. While the file is checked out, the Check Out Status tab displays the comment.

To

Show the working folder which SAW copies the file. By default, SAW copies the file with its own file name into your working folder. However, you can enter a different folder and file name, or click Browse to select a different location in your folder tree.

Recursive (project-level Check Out only)

Check out the project and all its subprojects.

Note: Cloaked project will not be checked out.

Build Tree Override Working Folders (project-level Check Out only)

Override the working folder set for the subprojects involved in a recursive operation, and builds a Project Tree that mirrors the project organization on your local computer. Working folder settings for individual subprojects are ignored. Available only when you select the Recursive check box.

Don't Get Local Copy

Tell SAW not to copy the file to your working folder. SAW records that the file is checked out, but does not write a new copy to your working folder.

Replace Writable

Determine how SAW behaves when you try to check out a file that is already marked as writable in your working folder. Select one of the following in the group box:

Ask: Asks you what to do when a writable version of a file is found.

Replace: Replaces the local file with the version on the server (and lose all local changes).

Skip: Leaves the local file alone (not retrieving the latest version from the server).

Merge: Attempts an automatic merge using SAW's ability to do a three-way file merge.

End-of-line terminator

The end-of-line terminator for files may be specified using this option. The options for end-of-line terminator are as follows:

• windows EOL(\r\n)
• Unix EOL(\n)
• Mac(\r)

By default, the End-of-Line terminator option will be set in File Options tab. The End-of-Line Terminator option can be changed if the operating system where the working folders reside differs from the operating system being used by the SAW Client.

Set File Time

Changes the time assigned to the check out operation. Select one of the following in the list box: current time, last file modification time, last file check-in time, or the default time (set on the File Options tab).
