This page explains the workflow for creating and amending changes in the

|
== Creating a New Empty Change
|
|
|
|
A new change can be created directly in the browser, meaning it is not necessary
|
|
to clone the whole repository to make trivial changes.
|
|
|
|
There are two different ways to create an empty change:
|
|
|
|
By clicking on the 'Create Change' button in the project screen:
|
|
|
|
[[create-change-from-project-info-screen]]
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-create-change-project-screen.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-create-change-project-screen.png"]
|
|
|
|
The user can select the branch on which the new change should be created:
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-create-change-project-screen-dialog.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-create-change-project-screen-dialog.png"]
|
|
|
|
By clicking the 'Follow-Up' button on the change screen, to create an empty
|
|
change based on the selected change.
|
|
|
|
[[create-change-from-change-screen]]
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-create-follow-up-change.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-create-follow-up-change.png"]
|
|
|
|
[[editing-change]]
|
|
== Editing Changes
|
|
|
|
To switch to edit mode, press the 'Edit' button at the top of the file list:
|
|
|
|
[[switch-to-edit-mode]]
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-enter-edit-mode-from-file-list.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-enter-edit-mode-from-file-list.png"]
|
|
|
|
While in edit mode, it is possible to add new files to the change by clicking
|
|
the 'Add...' button at the top of the file list.
|
|
|
|
Files can be removed from the change, or restored, by clicking the icon to the
|
|
left of the file name.
|
|
|
|
To switch from edit mode back to review mode, click the 'Done Editing' button.
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-file-list-in-edit-mode.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-file-list-in-edit-mode.png"]
|
|
|
|
[[open-full-screen-editor]]
|
|
While in edit mode, clicking on a file name in the file list opens a full
|
|
screen editor for that file.
|
|
|
|
To save edits, click the 'Save' button or press `CTRL-S`. To return to the
|
|
change screen, click the 'Close' button.
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-full-screen-editor.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-full-screen-editor.png"]
|
|
|
|
If there are unsaved edits when the 'Close' button is pressed, a dialog will
|
|
pop up asking to confirm the edits.
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-confirm-unsaved-edits.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-confirm-unsaved-edits.png"]
|
|
|
|
To discard the unsaved edits and return to the change screen, click the 'OK'
|
|
button. To continue editing, click 'Cancel'.
|
|
|
|
[[switch-to-edit-mode-from-side-by-side]]
|
|
|
|
While in review mode, it is possible to switch directly to edit mode and into an
|
|
editor for a file under review by clicking on the edit icon in the patch set list
|
|
on the side-by-side diff view.
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-enter-edit-mode-from-diff.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-enter-edit-mode-from-diff.png"]
|
|
|
|
[[reviewing-changes-made-in-change-edit]]
|
|
== Reviewing Change Edits
|
|
|
|
Change edits are reviewed in the same way as regular patch sets, using the
|
|
side-by-side diff screen. Change edits are shown as 'edit' in the patch list
|
|
on the diff screen:
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-edit-in-diff-screen-patch-list.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-edit-in-diff-screen-patch-list.png"]
|
|
|
|
and on the change screen:
|
|
|
|
image::images/inline-edit-edit-in-patch-list.png[width=800, link="images/inline-edit-edit-in-patch-list.png"]
|
|
|
|
Note that patch sets may exist that were created after the change edit was created.
|
|
|
|
For example this sequence:
|
|
|
|
`1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 edit 10`
|
|
|
|
means that the change edit was created on top of patch set number 9 and a regular
|
|
patch set was uploaded later.
