Suggestion: Option in Vault Client to clear local cache

Post by jboy » Sat Feb 16, 2008 7:07 pm

I find this article so useful, but it freaks out some of my staff that they need to go to such steps to clear their cache files

http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=6

Would it be possible in the future to add a menu item to the Vault Client so that the cache files could be cleared without digging about in the file system?

I know I'm not asking for much, but the difference in the perceived confidence in many developers out there would be huge - IMHO.

This functionality already exists in Vault 3.5, 4.x and in Fortress 1.x.

In the GUI Client, look under Tools->Options->Local Files->Cache/Backup location.

There are buttons for "Open Cache Folder" and "Reset Repository Cache."

You also have the option to change the location of the cache.
