To commit your changes to the repository, you check in your files
and directories.
Checking in a file or directory creates a new and permanent version
in the repository. It is good practice to check in your changes regularly,
according to your local development conventions.
In this topic, you
will check in the checked-out file in your ClearCase view.
To commit
changes:
- Connect to the ClearCase server.
Expand the
My Views node in
the ClearCase Navigator, right-click on the view called
yourname_tut_view and
click
Connect. In the
Login to ClearCase dialog
box, fill in the connection details, and click
OK.
Note: You
can also select the view and click the

(
Connect
to ClearCase Server) button in the toolbar or you can select from the
ClearCase menu.
In addition, if you are not connected to a ClearCase server and you perform
an action that requires such a connection, the
Login
to ClearCase dialog box appears automatically.
- In the ClearCase Navigator, navigate to the docs directory
under the yourname_tutorial directory.
- In the ClearCase Details view, select the readme.txt file.
- Click the
(Checkin the selected artifact(s))
button in the toolbar. Note: You can also right-click the file
and select Check In or you can select from the ClearCase menu.
- In the Checkin dialog box, click OK.
In the ClearCase Details view, note that the file no longer appears
with a checked-out indicator.
