Accurev CLI documentation does not mention any command to move workspace from one stream to another without the need of creating a new workspace.
Look in manual at the "accurev chws" command
Try running this command:
accurev chws -w "workspace name" -b "name of new backing stream"
Once complete, you will need to update your workspace:
accurev update

I need to download my source code from Rtc using command line ? Is there any command available to perform this activity?
Assuming you already have a repository workspace, then the CLI command would be scm load. Documentation is here.
To load into the current directory:
scm login -r https://server.com:9443/jazz -u user -P password -n repoNickname
scm load -r repoNickname "Workspace Name"
If the workspace name is not unique in the server, you can try the list workspace command to look for workspaces owned by you:
scm list workspaces -r repoNickname -c userName
The results will contain an alias which can be used in place of the workspace name in the load command. Alternatively you can find the UUID for your workspace by finding your workspace in the web UI and taking note of the url which will contain the workspace UUID.
I can use accurev wip command to find the element changed in other workspaces.
How can I know in Accurev CLI (or GUI) that the element is modified on other streams, not workspaces?
You will need to create a script to obtain this info.
Basically you will run the command:
accurev show -p -fxg -s "Stream Name" -R streams
You will parse this list looking for "hasDefaultGroup="true"".
For each stream that matches, execute the 'accurev stat -d -s' command.
I have a workspace in accurev. Recently I had to change my machine and now I want to setup the accurev workspace on the new machine. When I access my workspace from GUI, it shows old system name saying the workspace is on old system and cannot be accessed from new machine.
Is there any way I can get the same workspace on the new machine? or do I need to create a new workspace on new machine?
This can be done from Accurev GUI.
Goto View -> Workspace.
It will show a list of workspaces you created earlier. Select the workspace you want to modify, right-click and choose Edit. It will open a window for you to enter the path on your new machine (browse to the location on your new machine). Follow the steps clicking next button.
Clicking Finish will update the system with the chosen location and with your new machine as the host name.
Look into "AccuRev chws":
CHWS
change the name and/or definition of a
workspace
USAGE
accurev chws -w
accurev chws -w <workspace> [ -l <new-location> ] [ -m <new-machine> ]
[ -b <new-backing-stream> ] [ -k <kind> ] [ -e <eol-type> ]
accurev chws -s ...
Look particularly at -l and -m.
Is there any command to update my workspace forcedly in Accurev, directly replace the local files with the backed files, and don't care about the conflict files, modified files and so on?
I really miss the cvs command cvs update -C -d
According to question, I have similar issues. Usually I just use following commands:
accurev update -9
accurev pop -O -R .
accurev update
No, you will need to run a few operations. You can create a script to force update your workspace.
Basically, you will generate a list of all the modified, kept, overlap, member files, then purge those files, then update your workspace.
Check out the stat section in the CLI manual.
What You can do is delete all the local files from the file system and then do a:
accurev pop -R <path to local workspace directory>
I had similar issue; First take a back up of existing workspace, then Delete all the files in the local work-space folder. Click update button on Accurev. All files will be re-loaded on the workspace.
If you just want to undo all changes you have done in the workspace:
accurev stat -R -m -fl . | xargs -n 1 accurev purge
You can use similar command with rm / accurev pop to force refetch from backend. You can also vary the flags, -m for modified, -k for kept, -a for all.
I have recently downloaded GitHub and created a repository on it. I am trying to upload an Objective C project in it. How do I go about doing this?
I didn't find the above answers sufficiently explicit, and it took me some time to figure it out for myself. The most useful page I found was:
http://www.lockergnome.com/web/2011/12/13/how-to-use-github-to-contribute-to-open-source-projects/
I'm on a Unix box, using the command line. I expect this will all work on a Mac command line. (Mac or Window GUI looks to be available at desktop.github.com but I haven't tested this, and don't know how transferable this will be to the GUI.)
Step 1: Create a Github account
Step 2: Create a new repository, typically with a README and LICENCE file created in the process.
Step 3: Install "git" software.
(Links in answers above and online help at github should suffice to do these steps, so I don't provide detailed instructions.)
Step 4: Tell git who you are:
git config --global user.name "<NAME>"
git config --global user.email "<email>"
I think the e-mail must be one of the addresses you have associated with the github account. I used the same name as I used in github, but I think (not sure) that this is not required. Optionally you can add caching of credentials, so you don't need to type in your github account name and password so often. https://help.github.com/articles/caching-your-github-password-in-git/
Create and navigate to some top level working directory:
mkdir <working>
cd <working>
Import the nearly empty repository from github:
git clone https://github.com/<user>/<repository>
This might ask for credentials (if github repository is not 'public'.)
Move to directory, and see what we've done:
cd <repository>
ls -a
git remote -v
(The 'ls' and 'git remote' commands are optional, they just show you stuff)
Copy the 10000 files and millions of lines of code that you want to put in the repository:
cp -R <path>/src .
git status -s
(assuming everything you want is under a directory named "src".) (The second command again is optional and just shows you stuff)
Add all the files you just copied to git, and optionally admire the the results:
git add src
git status -s
Commit all the changes:
git commit -m "<commit comment>"
Push the changes
git push origin master
"Origin" is an alias for your github repository which was automatically set up by the "git clone" command. "master" is the branch you are pushing to. Go look at github in your browser and you should see all the files have been added.
Optionally remove the directory you did all this in, to reclaim disk space:
cd ..
rm -r <working>
Well, there really is a lot to this. I'm assuming you have an account on http://github.com/. If not, go get one.
After that, you really can just follow their guide, its very simple and easy and the explanation is much more clear than mine: http://help.github.com/ >> http://help.github.com/mac-set-up-git/
To answer your specific question: You upload files to github through the git push command after you have added your files you needed through git add 'files' and commmited them git commit -m "my commit messsage"
You need to create a git repo locally, add your project files to that repo, commit them to the local repo, and then sync that repo to your repo on github. You can find good instructions on how to do the latter bit on github, and the former should be easy to do with the software you've downloaded.
To upload files to your repo without using the command-line, simply type this after your repository name in the browser:
https://github.com/yourname/yourrepositoryname/upload/master
and then drag and drop your files.(provided you are on github and the repository has been created beforehand)
Here are the steps (in-short), since I don't know what exactly you have done:
1. Download and install Git on your system: http://git-scm.com/downloads
2. Using the Git Bash (a command prompt for Git) or your system's native command prompt, set up a local git repository.
3. Use the same console to checkout, commit, push, etc. the files on the Git.
Hope this helps to those who come searching here.

otherwise:

If you want to upload a folder or a file to Github
1- Create a repository on the Github
2- make: git remote add origin "Your Link" as it is described on the Github
3- Then use git push -u origin master.
4- You have to enter your username and Password.
5- After the authentication, the transfer will start
