EA Diff/Merge under subversion?

[B546]

Hello all,

I'm evaluating a demo copy EA Ultimate, and I have a few questions:

1)  If I have a particular package under version control using subversion, how do I diff between 2 arbitrary revisions (a.k.a Check In’s) of that package?  (Assuming two fortuitously placed baselines were not already created ahead of time?)

      
2)  If that’s not possible, how do I view the changes introduced by a particular Check In?


3) Can EA display the diagrams with the changes made in a particular change-set highlighted?  (Like Rhapsody)

4) Does EA also support a Copy-Modify-Merge workflow aside from the standard Lock-Modify-Unlock workflow?


Thank you,

Hi,

1.) Currently you can't (easily). You can however download the xmi of that version to you local disc and compare that to the model. So if you need to compare two arbitrary versions, you'll need to import one of those into (a copy of) the model and then compare against the other version which you downloaded from SVN. This is one of the promised features for version 9, which should be (beta) release within a couple of weeks.

2.) see 1.)

3.) No, you get a tabular view on changes, not a graphical one.

4.) No, EA always works with exclusive locks.
