Export Multiple Revisions from Visual Paradigm Teamwork Server

Teamwork Server is a version control system made especially for Visual Paradigm products to providing revision control and collaboration functionalities. You can import projects, commit and update your modeling project to the Teamwork Server.

Revision is an important concept in team development. A revision can be seen as a snapshot of the repository at a particular moment in time. Each time a success commit has been made, this creates a revision in the Teamwork Server. The more commits you have made, the more revisions the repository will store. In this version, Visual Paradigm supports exporting the revisions from server. You can export particular revisions, or even all revisions, and open them at client side.



Exporting Revisions from Teamwork Server

Here we have a project with a class diagram.


Several commits were made before, and each consists of some changes made to the diagram. Let’s export some revisions and see how the diagram look like in different revisions.

  1. Select Tools > Teamwork > Open Teamwork Client... from the main menu to open the Teamwork Client dialog box.


    This shows the Teamwork Client dialog box.


  2. Switch to the Revisions tab next to the Project Details tab.


  3. There are 14 revisions for this project. In other words, 14 commits were made. The last 10 revisions are listed by default. Let’s select “Last 20” to list all of them.


    Now, all the 14 revisions are listed.


  4. Select the revisions to export. In order to select multiple revisions, press the Ctrl key and then select the revisions from the project revisions table.


  5. Press the Export button, and select Export selected revisions... from the popup menu. You may select Export all revisions from repository.... By doing so, all the revisions of this project will be exported.


  6. Select a folder to store the exported revisions.


  7. Press OK to export
  8. Browse the folder that contains the exported revisions. You’ll see two folders: config and Projects.


    Open the Projects folder and go into two folders deeper, you can find the .vpp files.


    Each .vpp project file corresponds to a revision, identify by its file name. You may open the .vpp project files in Visual Paradigm’s products to read the project content.
