Rollback via label in clearcase

2019-06-06 07:17发布

问题:

I take care of a couple of extremly large projects. These projects are also divided into smaller del-projects some are delivered as a large project at one time. The problem I am having is that when all these small projects are merged into our release branch its dam near impossible for me to rollback 1000's of files. I am currently rethinking our branching strategy. Everything now is being merged with a label. We are also merging everything to a build-test branch before we even think about dumping it into our release branch.

If I need to do a rollback based on label what is the best way to do this? I have a few scripts but can't get this to work.. hopefully some ClearCase god here can help ASAP!

Thanks!

If you need to rollback to a label, you can:

  • create a dynamic view
  • edit its config spec to select said label
  • use that dynamic view as source for a clearfsimport into your main view (the one with the latest releases)

A clearfsimport -rmname ("mirror") will update/add/remove the files in the destination view with the files from the source (which is, here, your dynamic view set to the label you want to rollback).
