It is possible to merge two or more local packs of the same application together, for example, in case of team development. Merged local packs speed up accelerate the implementation process and help to arrange as it makes possible to deliver both the updates and development in one new functionality in the same local pack.
Before merging local packs, ensure that both local packs:
- Both local packs are in the the Completed state.
- Both local packs belong to the same application.
To merge local packs, complete the steps below:
- Navigate to Configuration → Local Packs.
- Choose Select the local packs you need to merge by selecting the checkboxes, then click and click Merge.
- Define the name and description of the consequent new local pack.
- Click Click Merge.
As a result:
- A new local pack is created. It contains the latest versions of the VCS Record (sys_vcs_record) from the merged local packs.
- This new local pack state is In Progressprogress.
- The original local packs are removed.
- The VCS records have the name of the merged local pack in the Local Pack field (instead of the removed original one).
