merge command

When you merge source files or directories, the merge tool compares the versions you selected, then compares the differences of each version to the closest common ancestor. Rational Synergy creates a new, merged, controlled version automatically when you exit your merge tool.

The merge operation works with both non-writable and writable objects. This feature merges parallel versions, even when parallel check-in is prevented, in order to use the merge tool. In previous releases, the parallel check-in was not allowed, so the merge tool was not invoked.

If you request Rational Synergy to create a new task automatically at the merge, Rational Synergy obtains the release value of the task from the project in whichfile_spec1 resides.

The merge command supports the Merging files or directories subcommand.
