Starting offline

We will start our team CVS tutorial by working offline and creating a simple project. Once the project is made we will see how to commit it to the repository. 

  1. Create a new "Simple" project using File > New > Project Use your name as the project name (e.g. JanesTeamProject). 

  2. Create a folder named folder1.
  3. Create two text files (.txt) in folder1 called  file1.txt and file2.txt. Their contents should be as follows:

    file1.txt

    This is the contents
    of file 1.

    file2.txt

    File2 is a small file  
    with simple text.

    The Navigator should now appear as follows:

    Navigator view

We can continue to work with our project in this mode but unless we commit the project into the repository others on our team will be unable to work on the project with us. In the next few sections we will see how to commit our project to the repository.
