Wise Package Studio contains a Revision Control System, with functions available in
Software Manager. Use Revision Control to:
Protect packages from unauthorized changes and changes to multiple copies of a
package at one time.
Track changes to packages.
Revision Control performs standard source control functions, including: check in, check
out, undo check out, and view and retrieve previous versions. Whereas other source
control products protect source files used to compile packages, Revision Control protects
packages.
For details, see Revision Control in the Software Manager Help.
