Basic Software Configuration Management (SCM) Anatomy IBM i PC Stream Repository Local Workspace Workspace Your changes Other’s changes  Streams are for sharing resources. For example, a Team Development Stream contains all product assets that a team is actively working on.  A repository workspace is your personal space saved in the repository. It is for developer to save intermediate work. It is not visible to other team members until you deliver into stream.  Local workspaces are where you edit resources.  Changes flow back and forth. www.StrongbackConsulting.com
