Get the latest version of an item added to GitHub

When the source control is turned on, and if you modify the package in GitHub, such as change the package name and version number in the xml and commit the changes, you can get the latest version of a package and an individual item that is marked as being under source control from TotalAgility.

  • If the version of an item in TotalAgility is lower than the version of item in GitHub, the item is imported.

  • If the version of an item in TotalAgility is same as the one in GitHub, the item is not imported.

  • You can get the latest version of an item only if the version of the item in TotalAgility is lower than the version of the item in GitHub.

  • Getting the latest version of an extraction group or form also updates the variants and getting the latest version of a process also updates the skins.

  • You cannot get the latest version of an item that is already checked out. For example, if an item in the package, such as process is already checked out in GitHub, the "Get latest" option is not available in the context menu for that item.

  • When you get the latest version of an item, and if the version of the local copy of the item is same as GitHub version, the associated items (form variants, document variants and skins) may not be in sync with the GitHub. For example, when you get the latest version of a process template in which the associated skin is being modified, and if the process version in local system and GitHub is same, the associated skins are not imported.
