Repository mechanism

No current data is deleted when projects are checked in and out. Under "Settings", you define how many project statuses per project are to be saved for each repository path. For local projects, 5 statuses are defined as unchangeable.

Local projects are compressed during check-in, copied to the repository and the local project is moved unchanged to the local project shelf. The compressed file in the repository and the unpacked local folder are given a time stamp.

When checking out, the repository project is unpacked in the local folder and the packed file is moved to the repository shelf.

The repository shelf projects can be imported directly into the PM. Alternatively, the ".hpvarc" file can also be unzipped with e.g. "7zip" and opened directly with the corresponding manufacturer software at another repository location.

However, these processes are only relevant in an emergency and are not the rule.

Paths of the local project data:
C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\SmartHomeTools\ProjektManager\Projekte\SpeicherXX
C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\SmartHomeTools\ProjektManager\Projekte\AblageXX

Paths of the repository project data:
<INDIVIDUALREPOSITORYPATH>\Archiv_Projekte
<INDIVIDUALREPOSITORYPATH>\Archiv_Ablage
