Repository and Workspace

Checkout-Modify-Checkin

The checkout in Plastic SCM means:

• The file is made writable (even if it was not by default).
• Plastic SCM knows that the file has been modified (which is good for quickly locating changes).

Exclusive Checkout

Set lock.conf on the server for specifying files to make exclusive

rep:default lockserver:mainsvr:8084
*.doc
*.xls
*.jpg
document.vcs

Change-Checkin

Take into account that by default Plastic will write all the files as read-only. We do this to enforce the check-out / check-in cycle

Enusre following checkbox unchecked:

writable.conf readonly.conf

To override the user preference of Update and Checkin operations set files as read-only, Use writable,conf and readonly.conf

*.pdb 
*.dll 
*/obj/* 
*/.metadata

ignore.conf

The counterpart of git's .gitignore

# ignore all bin and build directories
*/bin*
*/build*
