Enabling Source Control
To enable source control, first install your source control program according to the documentation provided with it. Typically, you install an administrator version on a server where the source code will be maintained, and then install the client version of the product on local machines.
Note All developers on a project must use the same source code control software.
After installing the source control software, you can set options so that Visual FoxPro will recognize it, and to specify defaults for your projects.
To enable source control in Visual FoxPro
- From the Tools menu, choose Options.
- In the Options dialog box, choose the Projects tab.
- In the Source control options area, select the name of your source control program in the Active source control provider list.
- To have Visual FoxPro prompt you to add new projects to source control, select Automatically add new projects to source control.
Each time you start Visual FoxPro, it checks for a source control provider. If one is found, you can put or manage projects under source control.
