Git Connector in action…

QLARIUS:SAVINGSStream for development

under central control of

Dimensions CM

GIT developer

clones the stream into

his local GIT repository

Another developer uses

Dimensions CM for their

work, updates from the

same Stream.

They perform development

and deliver their changes

into Dimensions.

GIT developer tries to

deliver and this fails as he

needs to merge the changes.

GIT developer pulls

changes merging them into

his local GIT repository.

Now the changes

can be safely delivered

back to Dimensions CM.

GIT developer branches,

commits, works as normal

with his GIT repository.
