"How Do I..." Guide for using Labels

Post by greenstone » Fri Feb 27, 2009 4:15 pm

Hi,

I've found many good conceptual articals about using Labels, but have yet to find any documentation of exactly how to use them.

For example:
I see how to set a label for a set of code, however how do I:
1.) see a list of available Labels
2.) how do I fetch a batch of code cooresponding to a Label
etc.

Is there a good document to help me with doing such?

Thanks!

You'll find some tips on using labels in this KB article:
http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=9

Also, for a great intro to source control, see Eric Sink's HowTo articles on his blog:

http://www.ericsink.com/scm/source_control.html

Regarding your questions:
1.) see a list of available Labels
To see labels on files/folders, right-click on the item and choose the Show Labels command. In the results, you can see labels applied directly to the item, inherited labels (applied at a level above the item) and recursive labels, (applied below the item.)

2.) how do I fetch a batch of code cooresponding to a Label


In the Show Labels results, right-click on the label you want, then choose Get.
