Comparing Revisions of an Element
You can use the compare tool to compare two revisions of an element in a local service development project.
Important: Revision compare is currently supported only for document types and flow services that are part of a local service development project.
Keep the following points in mind when you use revision compare:
The
Compare Element(s) With > Revision option is available for a document type or flow service in a local service development project only if:
You have checked out the element to the Project Explorer; and
You have reloaded the element on the local development server to make sure that the changes are reflected in the
Integration Server_directory\instances\default\packages directory.
Revision compare is supported for SVN (Polarion Software Subversive SVN) and Git VCS clients.
To compare the local service development project revision of an element with a specified revision of the element
1. In the Package Navigator view, select an element in a local service development project, right-click, and select Compare Element(s) With > Revision.
2. In the dialog box that opens, specify the revision of the element that you want to compare with by choosing one of the following options:
Select the
Head Revision.
Specify the
Date and time values corresponding to the revision.
Specify a
Revision number or use the
Browse button to browse the VCS and select a revision of the element.
