Adding files to the depot

To add a file to the depot, you must perform two actions: (1) open the file for add, which places the file in a changelist, and (2) submit the changelist, which copies the file to the depot.

To add a file to the depot:
  1. In the Files window, browse to the file you want to add. If the file does not reside in the depot, its icon is unmarked ().
  2. Context-click the file and choose Open for Add. The file icon displays a red plus sign () indicating it is open for add.
  3. To submit the changelist containing the open file, context-click the file and choose Submit Changelist. The Pending Changelist form is displayed, listing the files in the changelist.
  4. Enter a description of the change and click Submit. The new file is added to the depot.
