Usage of SnapShots in Xcode

XcodeBuilt-inSnapShotsUsage is the content to be introduced in this article. The main content is for us to understandSnapShotsFor more information, seeSnapShotsFunction, it seems to be inXCodeIt was added after 3.0. This function is very useful for managing personal source code, but it cannot work together. Let me briefly introduce it ..

1. When we open a project, Make Snapshots and Snapshots are included in the File menu. We can use these two menu items to complete the entire project,

2. After you select Make Snapshot, you can open the SnapShots dialog box to view your processing. Of course, you can annotate it,

 

3. manage projects

When you see the dialog box above, I think you will basically use it. Right, it's so easy to use. You can restore it to any of your statuses, you can also compare and annotate two files.

Of course, I think it's my responsibility to find out if we change to another machine, will it be lost? No, in

 
 

  
  
/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/SnapshotRepository.sparseimage 
 
 

The directory storesSnapshotsWhen you change the machine, you will not lose the history changes to the project. However, you need to configure a plist file in SnapshotReository, because the path and other common information of your original project are saved here, I believe you can understand it at a glance.

I hope my learning experience will help you. Of course, when we talk about SCM, we also have SVS and perforce during configuration. I am not very clear about their differences, I also hope that I can play the role of throwing bricks.
