During startup ages loads a list of all projects,branches and changes currently managed by Aegis and presents it as a tree. How this looks like is shown in Figure 1.
![]() | Every tree in ages toggles its expansion if the column-title is clicked. |
From this point there are several options available.
select a project. This opens the project settings dialog described in the chapter called Project Dialog
select a branch. This also opens the project settings dialog since both projects and branches have the same options (the chapter called Project Dialog).
select a change. This displays the change dialog. The options provided by this dialog depend on the current state of the selected change. More information about the change dialog can be found in the chapter called Change Dialog.
New Project. This opens a dialog which asks for a name for the new project. It then creates the new project using the Aegis new project command.
New Branch. The dialog presented after selecting New Branch is shown in Figure 3. There are two ways to get the new branch number. The first one is to use Automatic Number and let Aegis select the new branch number. The other is to explicitly name the number using the spin button. To enable this button Automatic Number must be unselected first.
![]() | To create a new branch the parent project or branch has to be selected first. |
New Change. The dialog presented after selecting New Change (see Figure 4) asks for the information necessary to create a new change. First of all a Brief Description is required. This gives a short description about what should be implemented in this change. The Detailed Description field is the place for the more detailed description. In the Test Required frame the required tests can be selected. The default values are set according to the project/branch settings (default_test_exempt). In the last frame Cause the cause can be selected. After clicking OK the change will be created with the previously selected project/branch as parent.
