ST - How to undelete an old file or just add it and attach to it the old file"s history.

Resolution:

Product name: Starteam

Product version: 2005 R2, 2006, 2006 R2, 2008, 2008 R2

Plattform version: Windows

Problem Description: A file was accidentally removed although the user has the latestcontent of that file and would like to upload it back to StarTeam,without losing history information.


Resolution: 1. Open two instances for the same view.

2. Roll back the one to a time before the file was deleted.

3. Share the file into the view that is in the current configuration, but into another folder (because you won"t be allowed to share it into the same folder).

4. Move the file to the correct folder.

5. Change the behaviour of the file to Branch on Change to avoid a read-only error when trying to check in the file.

6. Review the label attachments for the file in the rolled back view.

7. Attach the same labels to the restored file.
