Get latest version into different directory?

Post by Sky » Mon Mar 06, 2006 7:27 am

Hi!

is it possible using SOS GUI to perform a "Get Latest Version" and select a different directory than the working folder (like in SOSCMD or in VSS GUI).
VSS has this feature and it is quite useful.

In SOS, "Get" gets to the working directory. You can temporarily reset the working directory to do a get to a different location.

When you set you directory back, file status may be "Unknown." In that case, you can enable "Use Checksums" in the SOS Client under Tools->Options->Files. Then refresh the file list and your file status should be updated.

Is it possible to add this feature in a future version?

I'll log it as a feature request for consideration in a future release.
