Saving Changes to a VCS Profile

When you make changes to a VCS filesystem through its Customizer or New Generic VCS wizard, those changes are only applied to that individual filesystem. If you want to apply the changes to other VCS filesystems, you can save the changed profile and use it to mount and configure other VCS filesystems.

To save changes to a VCS profile:

  1. In the Explorer, right-click a filesystem and choose Customize from the contextual menu.
  2. In the Advanced tab of the Customizer, make the desired changes to the profile's commands and variables.
  3. Click the Profile tab and click the Save As button next to the Version Control System Profile combo box.
  4. In the Save As dialog, enter the file name and profile label, and click Save. The File Name is the name of the XML file where profile information is stored. The Profile Label is the name of the profile as it appears in IDE menus and combo boxes. The profile label is also used as the name of the profile's VCS commands submenu.

    If you want to overwrite an existing profile, select the profile name form the list in the Save As dialog click Save. Changes to existing profiles apply to the currently selected filesystem and to filesystems mounted with the profile after the changes are made.
