Hello Stefan, Adding to Tim's response, the propatch commands does not change the file content, but just it's metadata, witch is also being versioned but in the associated xml file of versioning, inside the metainfo store. It's pretty easy to confirm this if your metadata store is a txfilestore.
Hope this helps, Miguel Figueiredo -----Original Message----- From: Tim Frank [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: terça-feira, 7 de Dezembro de 2004 14:38 To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: Re: auto-version-values Stefan, If you leave the auto-version parameter blank, empty, no value then NOTHING will happen automatically. I will mention that you should be careful with understanding how these parameters work with "dumb" webdav clients such as Windows WebFolders. The dumb behaviour is to automatically overwrite whatever is "live" as there is no checkout/checking issued. I would recommend using the "checkout" option for that reason, as a safeguard. There is a duplicate of the file created in history to allow the uncheckout command to function. Uncheckout is like undo. You can checkout a file, do 20 changes on it, then decide "No, I really don't want to save those changes for this version", so you issue the uncheckout command to rollback to the last good copy from the history. Hope that helps.
