    To make a new file or to make changes to a file available to other SiteBuilder users, the file must be committed. Otherwise, the changes will only exist in the user's private edit area. When committed, the file will be saved in the repository.

    The repository is where a work area stores all files and all changes that have been committed. Even files that have been deleted are stored in the repository, unless they have been purged, which usually only the administrator should be able to do.

    A file is committed by focusing on the file or the directory containing the file and clicking the Commit button. A commit message must be provided to complete the commit wizard. If the messages are written carefully, they will be a valuable help when examining the logs.

    Several files can be committed simultaneously. If you click on Commit when focusing a directory you will be able to select the file or files you want to commit. All changed files in the current directory will automatically be selected. To commit a file in a sub directory you must click on the arrow in front of the directory to get a list of the changed files in that directory.

    If another user have committed his changes of a file you are editing, you must update the file to solve possible conflicts before you can commit your own changes.
