4.8.2 Creating a new version
You may create a new version of a document under version control as you would or ordinary documents.
If you edit a text document under version control directly on the server, a new version is created automatically. Its version information should be completed in order to inform the members of the workspace (see 4.8.3).
You explicitly create a new version of a document under version control as follows.
- Select
in the
action menu of the document; this action replaces the
action of ordinary
documents. - The ‘Revise’ form lets you upload a file as the new version. The form further offers default values for the new version number and the version state. These values may be modified, e.g. an out-of-sequence version number may indicate that the current version is a significant change of the preceding version (see 4.8.3).
- Entering instructive information in the field ‘Changes made in version version-number’ will help the members of the workspace understand the version history and later on to find a specific older version.
