Add to Source Control Dialog Box

InstallShield 2016

This dialog is displayed when you add a project to your source control program through InstallShield.

Dialog Options

Comments

Enter the comments describing the file. These comments are stored in your source control program.

Keep checked out

Select this option to add the .ism file (in text format), but keep it checked out in your working directory.

Convert to XML

This option causes the .ism file to use the XML representation, which is better suited for source control. If you add a project in Binary format to source control, this option is available and is selected by default. It is recommended that you leave this option selected.

Note • When a project file format is converted to either XML or binary format, the project file extension remains *.ism.
