Abstract

See full text

A software configuration management (SCM) system can include operations such as removing a selected section from a first artifact in a first stream, wherein the first artifact includes a plurality of sections, and creating a second artifact in the first stream including the selected section. The second artifact does not include at least one other section of the plurality of sections. An annotation can be generated using a processor that specifies the first artifact, a range within the first artifact corresponding to the selected section, and the second artifact into which the selected section is moved. The annotation can be used to apply changes implemented in selected artifacts from one stream to another.
