Creating Quicksave

To create Quicksaves, the following requirements must be met:

  • Quicksave must be enabled in the AdminClient.
  • A base version of the component to be backed up by a Quicksave must exist and must be checked in.
  • The component must exist locally (checked out).

Proceed as follows:

  1. Select a directory or component in the Project tree.
  2. Open the Extras tab in the menu bar.

  3. Open the dropdown menu for the Create button and select one of the options Create or Create with comment.

    Figure: Menu bar, Extras tab, Create Quicksave

  4. A Quicksave of the directory or component is created. If you have selected the option Create with comment comment, you can enter a comment on the status of the changes before creating the Quicksave.

Unnecessary Quicksaves

When you create a Quicksave, the checksum of the file you are saving is compared with that of the previous Quicksave. If the checksums are the same, the Quicksave not necessary dialog is displayed. You can then decide whether the Quicksave should be created anyway or not.

Info

In the Client settings dialog, you can configure in the Quicksaves tab whether the Quicksave not necessary dialog is displayed. Alternatively, you can activate that Quicksaves are always created or not created in this case.
