What is deliverbl in UCM ClearCase?

Question

I am wondering about \'deliverbl\', how important are they for historical purposes or during development? All I know is they are created during delivery and includes activie

Answer 1

There are representing merges (from a child stream to another stream), so:

• they should be considered, as they show the code "merged" (with potential conflicts resolved)
• but you might have more trouble to export the merge hyperlink which shows the source of the merge

I like to export those baselines because their naming convention shows the stream destination name, as well as the date of the deliver, so you are left with clues about a merge between two branches.

However, their are unlabelled, so you might:

• either need to convert those to a full baseline (cleartool chbl -full)
• or decide to not bother with them and leave those out of your export.
