To version control any activity you need to Check-In it. This ensures that the activity is being version controlled in SVN and you can Check-It out at any point of time in case you want to use this particular version of this activity. Whenever you do any modification in the activity, you can check-In the activity to make sure that the changes is being version controlled. After each check-In a version number is assigned to the activity.
This section explains how to check-in a single activity.
 

Steps to check-in the activity

  1. To check in any activity, go the Manage Page of that activity. For example, if you want to check-in a File Event, go the File Event Manage Page (see Figure 686).


    Figure 686: File Event Manage 

    As you can see in the above figure, two activities with icon are new activities which are not checked in to SVN server.
    Table below list all possible synchronization status and their respective icons to depict the synchronization status.
