1 Introduction

The commit dialog is used for committing changes to the Team Server. You can enter a message and, if applicable, select related stories.

Version Control Menu

2 Branch

At the top of the dialog box you will see the branch which you are committing. This will be one of the following:

Branch Description Notes
Version Control Menu
you are committing the main line
Version Control Menu
you are committing the specified branch

3 Message

Enter a message describing the changes you have made. This message may contain multiple lines. If you want to make the commit using the keyboard you can press Ctrl+Enter.

4 Commit Tabs

4.1 Related Stories

Version Control Menu

Tick the boxes next to the stories that are related to your commit. Mendix recommends committing a small number of changes at a time, so there is usually just one related story.

4.2 Changes in Model

Version Control Menu

If there are changes in the model this tab shows a summary of those changes. For more information on how changes are reported in Studio Pro, see Changes Pane.

4.3 Changes on Disk

Version Control Menu

If there are changes on disk this page shows a summary of those changes. Click Open containing folder to open the folder containing the selected file in Windows Explorer.

The tab page is hidden if there are no disk changes. Often, there are model changes but the only change on disk is the app file (.mpr) reflecting these model changes. In this case, it is also hidden, because it does not add useful information.
