FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed workflow changes in version control?

Archiving completed workflow changes involves moving the change directory to a designated location organized by date and change name. This keeps completed work out of active development scope while maintaining project history.

What is delta spec synchronization and when do I need it before archiving?

Delta spec synchronization ensures experimental changes are synced with main specifications before archival. You need it when archiving a completed change to prevent losing modifications made during the workflow. The process assesses sync states and provides options to sync before final archival.

How do I verify task and artifact completion before archiving a change?

Verifying task and artifact completion before archiving a change requires checking the status of all associated tasks and artifacts. The archival process assesses these states automatically to ensure no incomplete work is moved to the archive location.

Can I use automated archiving for experimental workflow change management?

Yes, automated archiving can be used for experimental workflow change management. It moves completed changes to a designated archive location based on the current date and change name, ensuring a clean project history.

What happens if my delta specs are out of sync when I archive a change?

If delta specs are out of sync during archival, the process assesses synchronization states and provides options for syncing before final archival. This ensures main specifications reflect the completed work before it is moved.
