HOPEX Repository State Changes
The integrity of the repository is assured by successive changes in its state.
When repository updates are executed in a private workspace, they are only visible to other users when the user dispatches his/her work.
The repository changes from state N to state N+1 with memorization of new data related to the previous situation (state N).
If the user does not save updates, the changes made since the last valid state are forgotten. The repository remains in state N. Note that HOPEX repository state changes are managed automatically.
A workspace opens on the latest states of the repository and system repository.
