Changing the View Compare/Merge Session Working Folder

View Compare/Merge allows you to check out files in a session to a temporary default working folder until you commit your merge changes. This allows you to test your changes to make sure they work before you commit them to the StarTeam repository on the server.

To change the temporary default working folder View Compare/Merge uses for a VCM session, do the following:

  1. In your View Compare/Merge session, choose VCM Session > Test Perspective.
  2. Choose VCM Session > Working Folder.

    The VCM Session Working Folder dialog box opens.

  3. Select Alternate and type in, or browse to, the location for your working folder.
