Version Control
The version control system allows for full control of all changes made
to files in the SiteBuilder file structure. All versions of a file
that have been committed to the repository are saved and can be
viewed. It is also possible to revert to an earlier version of a file
by simply clicking a button.
When files have been modified, one way or another, various symbols
will be shown beside the file type symbol. The symbol in the first
column represents the user's edit area, while the second represents
the file committed to the repository.
The significance of each of these can be interpreted somewhat
differently depending on which column the symbol is shown in, and if
it is shown in normal or undelete mode. See descriptions below.
