The New Workspace Command: Screen 3 of 3—Configuring the Workspace)
Type of File Locking
This setting controls whether development in this workspace uses serial or parallel methodology. If you choose parallel development, you may still be restricted to using serial development on certain files; AccuRev supports locks on individual file elements. (See File Locking on page 255.)
None (parallel development): The version-controlled files in the workspace tree are writable at any time. There is no need to perform an anchor operation on a file before beginning to work on it.
Anchor Required: Each version-controlled file in the workspace tree is read-only until you use the Anchor command to make it writable. This also makes the file active in the workspace.
Note: The Anchor command makes the version currently in the workspace.
Exclusive Lock: Like Anchor Required, and also causes AccuRev to prevent users in sibling workspaces from working on the same file concurrently. (See File Locking on page 255.)
Initial Contents
Same as Basis stream For each element, AccuRev copies the current version in the backing stream to the workspace tree. If no version of an element currently appears in the backing stream, it won't appear in the new workspace, either.
Pick and choose from Basis stream: AccuRev doesn't copy any files to the workspace tree. To begin working in the workspace, use the File Browser's Include/Exclude facility to configure the set of elements to appear in the workspace. (Using the File Browser's Include/Exclude Mode on page 94.)
EOL (Text-file line terminators)
Whenever AccuRev copies a version of a text file from the repository to the workspace tree, it uses the line terminator you configure here.
Platform EOL: Use the line terminator for the operating system on the machine where the AccuRev GUI is running.
Always use Windows EOL: Use the sequence CR-LF (hex 0C-0A) as the line terminator.
Always use UNIX EOL: Use NL (hex 0A) as the line terminator.
