SQL Source Control - 3.1
Conflicts - SQL Source Control
Conflicts occur when the latest version of an object in source control and the latest version in the database are incompatible. Conflicted objects cannot be committed or retrieved until the conflict has been resolved.
This happens if two people modify the same object.
When a conflict occurs, the Conflict to resolve bar is displayed in the Object Differences pane:
To resolve a conflict, choose either:
- Keep mine
Your changes are committed to source control.
This replaces any changes to the latest source control version that are not present in your database version.
Or
- Take theirs
Your changes are discarded, and the database is updated to the latest source control version.
Merging
Note that merging is not currently supported.
To merge changes from two conflicting versions of an object, resolve the conflict, and then manually edit the object to include the changes from the other version.
To make this easier, you can copy either version of an object's creation script from the Object Differences pane, and paste it into a new query window.
To avoid conflicts, you are recommended always to get the latest version of an object before modifying it.
Conflicts involving data
If an object has both schema and data changes, you must commit or get the latest schema and data changes at the same time. You cannot commit only the data changes. This is because data changes may fail without the associated schema changes.
So if an unconflicted data change is associated with a conflicted object, you cannot commit or get the data change without first resolving the schema conflict.
