-
defPackagesWorkingCopyPath is the path to the working copy of Creatio custom packages. Fill out this parameter only if you use the SVN version control system. The working copy contains custom packages organized as directories and files. The built-in Creatio SVN client synchronizes the working copy with the repository of the SVN version control system. Set up this parameter when integrating the version control system. Creatio will use it only in the default development mode; i. e., if the file system development mode is disabled. The default value is a temporary directory, which the operating system may clear. We recommend specifying a custom directory. If you specify an existing Creatio directory, for example, .\Terrasoft.WebApp\Terrasoft.Configuration\Pkg, that may cause compilation errors.
-
sourceControlAuthPath is the path to the authorization data of the built-in client of the SVN version control system (if used): The default value is a temporary directory, which the operating system may clear. If you use a version control system, we recommend specifying the path to a permanent directory in this parameter.
