Promote

The Promote command converts private versions into public versions. It takes versions that you previously created in your workspace with Keep and sends them to the backing stream. If you have modified a file, this command first performs a Keep and then promotes the kept file.

Implicit Keep and Promote

If you execute a Promote command on files which have changed since they were last preserved in the repository with Keep, meaning they have (modified) status, the AccuRev Plug-In for IntelliJ IDEA runs a sequence of AccuRev commands on the selected files:

1. Performs a Keep on all the files in the selection with (modified) status.
2. Performs a Promote on all the files in the selection that now have (kept) status.
