Baselines

Baselines capture the state of a project or branch at a specific moment in time.

About this task

For example, if you create monthly baselines of a project, you will be able to consult what the state of the project was in past months, and revert back to a previous baseline if required. See Managing baselines for information on creating baselines.

Note:

Note also the existence of deployment baselines, which you can create when deploying RuleApps.

Each branch of a project can contain many baselines, all of which you can consult. When you consult a baseline you cannot edit any of the project elements; you must return to the current state of the project or branch to do so. However, when you consult a baseline you can access the history of the project elements, and restore individual elements to the current state.

Note:

When you consult a baseline, the name of the baseline appears in the top banner.

Procedure

To consult a baseline:

  1. On the Home tab, from the Current action drop-down list, select View a baseline and the required baseline .
  2. To return to the current state, select Work upon branch from the Current action drop-down list.
