Using PVCS with SilkTest

By default, the most recently stored version of a selected file is retrieved.
You can retrieve earlier versions by using either a revision number or a
version label. Multiple files can be checked out with a common version
label, but not with a common revision number. To display the Revisions
and Version Labels list boxes, click the Advanced button.

Note If you want to modify a file to check in later, you must select
the Lock To Modify radio button (only the most recent version of a
file can be locked for modification).

Click OK.

Checking in files

You check in a file to store a new version of a SilkTest file in a PVCS archive.
The archive keeps track of who made the changes, when they were done, and
any comments you want to enter about the changes that were made. To be
able to check a modified file back into an archive, it must have first been
checked out with a lock.

Procedure To check in a file:

Select File/Check In or press Ctrl+k.

The Check In dialog is displayed.

Select one or more files in the directory to be checked in. (If one of the
files you have selected doesn't yet have an archive, see "Creating a new
file archive" below before proceeding.)

Click OK.

The following dialog is displayed so you can make comments and/or
assign a version label to the new revision of the file(s) being checked in.
