ClearCase Commands

Again a multi part operation as, to achieve transparency, directories are themselves vob (versioned) objects.

#1 First checkout the directory under which you want to create the new sub-directory.
cl co -c "Add directory xxx" .

The period indicates that you are checking out a directory.

#2 mkdir xxx

#3 Give the new directory privilege level 775
cl protect -chmod 775 .

#4 To verify the privilege level is 775
ls -adl .

The directory attribute string should be: d rwr rwr r-x (7 7 5)

These last two steps will ensure that someone else can later manipulate the directory without having to come back to you to beg for the privilege!

Eg: /src/ui/thunk_ar

#1 Change to the directory you want to rename eg: /ui/thunk_ar and check it out:
cl co .

#2 Checkout the directory above the directory you want to rename : eg /ui
cl cd..
cl co .

#3 Rename the directory by mv'ing it:
cl mv thunk_ar thunk_31

#4 Check in the directories:
cl ci .
cl cd thunk_31
cl ci .

Checkout the directory that contains the directory or element to be renamed.
Do
cl mv oldname newname
for the directory or element. Check it in.
