Synopsis

adl_photo [-tree ws_tree_name] [-wr] [-h|-help|-?]

Usage

This command is related to the flow commands (adl_sync [1], adl_promote [2], adl_collect [3]) and verifies that all the images of the involved workspace do not have checked-out files. If so, the command fails. Note that the adl_photo command concerns all the images of the current workspace, unlike the adl_ci command, which is run on the current image only.

When you want to put back in the database modifications you are working on, in order to refresh another image, the adl_ci command is enough.

Necessary Context

No acquisition in a private mode in the current image
No merge to be resolved within the workspace
No official nor private acquisition in the others images of the workspace
If the first condition is fulfilled, the check-in is done, but the version is not frozen.

Options

adl_photo accepts the following options:

`-h\|-help\|-?`	Help of the command
`-wr`	Keep the checked-out files.
`-tree ws_tree_name`	Freeze only these workspace trees.
