Retain Timestamp

This topic discusses the Retain timestamp option available for some of the DesignSync commands.

This option governs whether to retain the "last modified" time of when the file version was checked into the vault or set the timestamp to the time of the current operation.

Note: If an object is checked into to the vault and the setting of the Retain Timestamp option is the only difference between the version in the vault and your local copy, DesignSync does not include the object in checkout operations.

DesignSync operations follow the SyncAdmin registry setting for Retain last-modification timestamps. By default, this setting is not enabled; therefore, the timestamp of the local object is the time of current check-in, check-out, or cancel operation being performed. To change the default setting, your Synchronicity administrator can use the SyncAdmin tool.
