Re: i project push changes feature.

Hi David,

It does just an overwrite, so "Last writer wins", but at least it will ask
if you really to overwrite if the source on the system has changed.
Try to avoid this situation that you both work with the same source on the
i. I would recommend (if possible in your situation) that you import the
source from the original place into your iProject and set the associated
library of your iProject to different ones for you and your coworker.

Best regards,

I just experimented with this and it looks like a nice feature, but I don't
understand how it deals with the changes. Ok if I've just added lines, but
what about deleting or modifying?

A coworker is already working on a source I need to modify. We have no way
of managing more than one developer working on the same source. Normally,
I'd just have to note whatever changes I make, then make sure I copy my
changes to the coworkers version if I deploy mine first so that he won't,
how do you say, squash mine when he installs. Now I've discovered "push
changes" in i projects. I've downloaded the coworkers source into my
project, and it's ready to go. I'm a bit scared about this. If I click "push
changes" and the coworker has modified his source since I downloaded it,
what's going to happen?
