      Tip

      It is highly recommended that you create a new branch from the locally exported version of the server project. Doing so This will ensure that the changes made in Teamwork Cloud and local changes can be merged together with local changes by using a correct common ancestor.

      If the Question dialog appears, click Yes to automatically create a new branch from the locally exported version automatically.

      If you click No, the branch that is opened or selected in the Manage Projects dialog is specified automatically.


    • disable Disable the Maintain Mount Points of Used Projects option if you do not want Mount relationships to be automatically created automatically upon the project update. 

  3. Click Update when you are done. An updated version of the project with the contents of the local project is created in the selected branch.

If the exported version of the server project contains used projects, their status can be reviewed in the Update from Local Project dialog upon when the project updateupdates. To do soreview updates, click More in the bottom-left corner of the dialog. 

...

Depending on the changes made in the used project, the following actions can be performed upon when the project updateupdates

  • Keep Version #<number>: if the used project version is the same as the one on the server , (for example, it has not been modified locally), the same version of that used project is kept upon kept when the main project updateupdates
  • Use Version #<number>: if the used project version on the server differs from the one in the local file, the version that is available on the server and matches the local file contents is used.
  • Add to server: if a new used project is added to the local file and it does not exist in the server project yet, it is added to the server upon the main project update.
  • Update: if the local file contains used project-related changes, they the changes are applied to the server project upon the main project update.
