Version 5.0 Request

Post by Jared Sullivan » Sun Sep 07, 2008 10:59 pm

Hello,

Could I make a simple request for SorceOffSite Explorer included in SOSClient installer. I like to check out misc. files & folders with the following options..

+Force Overwrite
+Build Tree

But, SOS basically forgets my settings and I have to alter the "GET" dialog everytime.

Thanks
Jared Sullivan.

Can you show me a screenshot of your Get dialog with the options you set?

These items can be set in the SourceOffSite client options.

In the GUI client, under Tools-> Options-> General, check the box for "act on projects recursively." This will maintain the setting for "recursive" in the Get dialogue.

In the Files tab, uncheck "use read-only flag for files that are not checked out." Now your files will be writable on a get.

In the Files tab, in the "handle conflict with modified local copies when retrieving files" choose the desired behavior from the drop-down menu.

Let me know if this does not resolve the problem.
