Source Control Interface on UNIX Platforms

If you use a source control system to manage your files, you can check M-files and Simulink models, and Stateflow charts into and out of the source control system from within MATLAB, Simulink, and Stateflow.

The source control interface supports four popular source control systems, as well as a custom option:

• ClearCase from Rational Software
• Concurrent Version System (CVS)
• PVCS Version Manager from Merant
• Revision Control System (RCS)
• Custom option -- Allows you to build your own interface if you use a different source control system. For details, see the reference page for customverctrl.

Perform source control interface actions for a single file using menu items in the MATLAB Editor/Debugger, a Simulink model window, or a Stateflow chart window. To perform source control actions on multiple files, use the Current Directory browser. Alternatively, run source control functions in the Command Window, which provide some options not supported with the menu items.

Source control topics described here are

• Specifying the Source Control System
• Checking Files Into the Source Control System
• Checking Files Out of the Source Control System
• Undoing the Checkout
