Some Useful Features

Below-mentioned are a few useful options to work with the shared Event Process, which are available in its context menu (Team option in the right-click menu of the Event Process):

Synchronize with Repository: When Event process has changes to be committed or checked out, use this Option to open Synchronize View either in the same perspective or in Team Synchronizing Perspective. The Synchronize view shows the changes to be committed or Checked Out.
Update to HEAD: Used to update the event process to its current revision in the SVN repository. The changes that are made can be identified by a Dirty Flag that can be set using Label Decorations in Preferences refer section below.
Update to Version: Used to update the event process to a particular revision from SVN repository.
Show History: Shows the history of the Event Process commits.
Revert: Used to Revert the changes made to Event Process. Note: The other options like Update to Revision, Revert and other options that change the contents of the Event process project will display 'out of sync' in the title of the EP. Just click on the Orchestration Editor of the Event process to sync.

Update to HEAD

As briefed earlier, this Option is used to update the event process to its current revision in the SVN repository. As shown in the below figure the Event Process2 has some local changes, which can be identified by the Dirty Flag.

After choosing the Update to HEAD option, the Event Process is shown as out of sync as shown in the below figure.

Click inside the Event process's Orchestration Editor so that the UI gets updated and the Event process gets in Sync with updated project; "Out of Sync" text disappears from the title.

SVN Label Decorations

The Label of the Event Process Project Name which is shared in SVN Repository can be customized to include/exclude various attributes such as Dirty flag, Revision Info, author, date, URL.

For example, to show the revision number (which helps in identifying revision from the Server Explorer itself) of an Event Process project next to its name in the Server Explorer View, perform the following actions:

Go to Window menu and click Preferences.
In the Preferences window, navigate to Team > SVN > Label Decorations.Under Text tab in the Label Decorations section, change the value of Project Format to the following and click Apply:
{dirty_flag}{name} [revision {revision}]
The Event Process in the Server Explorer panel appears in the format as applied.
Some useful variables that can be used to display in Event Process name by amending Project Format values are:
- {author} for the author of the revision.
- {url_short} for the URL of the project in SVN repository (File_transfer-1.0@EnterpriseServer as it was appearing previously in the example).
- {date} for the modification date and time of the revision.
