Viewing the Commit History

You can view the commit history of individual objects from the object Properties Window:

  1. Open the Object Properties Window for the desired network object.
  2. Click (Commit History) on the property sheet toolbar. This displays the Commit History dialog. On the dialog you can:
    • View details of any previous commit, such as number of changed objects and any comments made at the time. To do this, select one of the rows in the list and click Details. This displays the Object commit details dialog where you can find details about what changes were made to the selected item in the database during a single commit operation. Additionally, the Full history option of the Object commit details allows users to access the full commit history for the network object.
    • View the differences between two versions. Select two rows to view the differences between those two versions. Select one row to view the differences between that version and your current version, including any uncommitted changes. Then click Diff. See Comparing Individual Objects for more details.
    • View all the commits (scenario and base commits) for the selected network object if is in a scenario and has been modified from the base. To do this, enable the Show Base option. This option is disabled by default (only scenario commits are displayed by default).
    • Note: All base commits are displayed after scenario commits. The order in which commits are listed in the dialog is based on the order of precedence for scenario objects rather than in chronological order. Scenario commits always override base object commits.
    • Copy history to the clipboard. Select one or more rows, right-click and choose Copy selected items to the clipboard from the context menu.
  3. Click Close when you have finished using the dialog.
