Quick Evaluation of AccuRev(UNIX/Linux) : Creating and Populating an AccuRev Depot

Creating and Populating an AccuRev Depot
Follow these steps to place an existing source tree under AccuRev's control:
1.
accurev mkdepot -p gizmo
AccuRev will store the depot in a default location. (It can easily be moved at a later time.)
2.
A workspace is a personal area used for editing and testing your work. Transform your source tree into a workspace with the mkws command. For example, if your sources are in /home/jsmith/ws/my_gizmo:
accurev mkws -w my_gizmo -b gizmo -l /home/jsmith/ws/my_gizmo
The argument to the –b option should be the same as the depot name.
3.
cd /home/jsmith/ws/my_gizmo
4.
accurev stat -x
5.
accurev add -x
(You can filter out files with certain extensions if you don't want to place all the files under version control. See the add reference page (accurev help add) for details.)
6.
accurev promote -k
Removing a Depot
A depot can be removed completely from the repository with the maintain rmdepot command. This operation is irreversible! For details, see Removing a Depot from the AccuRev Repository on page 103 of the AccuRev Administrator’s Guide.
