View Compare/Merge (VCM)

At key milestones in a development project, most views have changes that need to be propagated to another view, and sometimes to several views. When work is complete or reaches a suitable release point in an activity or sandbox view, it needs to be merged “up” to the parent view. When a bug is fixed in the main view, it may need to be propagated “down” to one or more release views. Sometimes a fix needs to be propagated “sideways”, from one release view to a sibling release view.

View Compare/Merge is a comprehensive cross-view change management tool for propagating discrete sets of changes from one view to another.
