Undo changes in streams

You can roll back the delivery of files and folders to a stream.

For example, you deliver changes but discover problems in the code and decide to remove the changes. Undo creates a new changeset with the reverted changes that preserves the full history.

Guidelines for undoing changes:

• This operation requires the same privileges as deliver.
• This operation undoes an entire changeset, not individual item revisions.
• The original request relationships are not undone.
• This operation makes changes only in a repository and does not affect the items in a work area.
• After completing an undo, to synchronize your work area with the repository, run an update.
• You can run undo at any location as long as the changeset does not affect items further up the hierarchy.
• You can undo only a single changeset.
• If items in a changeset have more recent changes in a newer changeset, you cannot undo it.

To undo changes:

1. Desktop client:

   • To undo an entire changeset, from the Stream or Project menu, select Changesets

   • To undo a specific set of changes, select a folder. Right-click and select Folder Changesets.

   Windows Explorer: Select a folder where you want to undo changes. Right-click and select Dimensions > Changesets.

2. In the Changesets dialog box, right-click a changeset and select Undo Stream/Project Version.

3. (Optional) Select requests to relate to the change and add a comment.

4. Click OK.
