I work with Power Designer 16.1 and I believe I have an issue with the repository. Most of time I do checkIn of models without any problems.
But sometimes I lost completely the model from repository so I am obliged to do check in of my last local version, what makes me lose all the historical works of colleague.
After some analysis (and I may be wrong) I think that the problem occurred when someone try to do check-in and did not finalize the work ( took more time that needed) and someone else in the same time try to do check. The Models will disappears from repository confusion of the path.
If someone already had this problem and could help please?

This may sound strange, but I am having issues with Xcode mixing branches, or at least messing everything up.
I created a new branch (v1.4), then created a new data model and renamed an entity. Had to switch back to previous branch (v1.3) to check something and I get errors at run time on v1.3, it's looking for the new entity name from Branch v1.4 - what the %$^#% is happening. I searched the files, the new entity name is nowhere in v1.3.
I switch branches again to v1.2 and it ran fine. So, switched to V1.3 again - nogo. Switched back to v1.2 and it has the same issue now, runtime error because it can't find the new entity name.
What is happening? Anyone else have this issue?
Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
OS X 10.11.6
Xcode 7.1.1
==[EDIT]===
I am not real familiar with GIT, just starting to learn. I ran the couple commands as mentioned, get nothing for either git diff commands.
Running git status --ignored I do get multiple files as untracked - still working on understanding why (Separate issue) - couple object files and 2 data models (Was 3, but manually added one to commit.
Also I get 3 ignored files:
.DS_Store
projectName.xcodeproj/project.xcworkspace/xcuserdata/
projectName/.DS_Store
That's as far as I've gotten. Not familiar enough with git to know if these ignored files are the ones I should delete.
Second option - will restoring from time machine fix this? It may be a little extra work for me to recreate v1.4 but probably less time than I've already spent trying to figure out how to fix it.
I do appreciate both comments so far - thank you.
==[SECOND EDIT]==
Thanks again for your comments.
However, do to time and schedule I perform a Time Machine backup before ElpieKay posted the last comment, so I will not be able to test it.
Reverting back did "fix" it as you'd expect, but I did lose several hours of work but life happens. I will keep this for if/when this happens again and try the git clean -df to see it fixes it.
On a side note - while I was switching back and forth between V1.3 and V1.4 trying to figure this out, 2 of the model versions disappeared on v1.4 - i.e. the name turned red in Xcode and when I viewed the contents of the file they were missing. I do not know if this is related or not, but I thought I would mention it. This happened one other time and I thought maybe I did something - I did a time machine restore to fix it last time. Wonder if git clean -df would have fixed it.
I recently built a large-ish open source program in Visual Studio 2013. Initially the build failed due to a couple errors (a C1900 and a LNK2019). These errors were quite puzzling since I was following clear, simple instructions for building the program. The main developer couldn't think of any good reasons why they would occur.
I turned off my laptop overnight and the next morning I reattempted the build with the intention of reproducing the errors. But to my great surprise, no errors. I did not change any of the source or any compiler settings, etc.
Later that day I decided to do another build, and I got the same errors as before. I shut down my laptop for a minute or so, turned it back on, tried building again and it worked.
Clearly this is really strange. I have reason to suspect that there is some faulty hardware in my laptop. Could that cause these mysterious disappearing errors?
Try this on another machine and see if you get the same results. If you do, you'll know it's not a hardware issue.
It's more probable that you don't have complete build steps provided by the other developer. If he only built/tested it on his computer, then he may have added/installed (and not documented) some other tools/scripts/libraries necessary for a successful build - that he doesn't even remember about. There could also be circular dependencies between the projects which prevent you from building in one step.
You should try and identify the relationships between the projects and then build them separately, until you find where the problem is. You start with those projects not having references on any other ones, and so on. Eventually, you'll find the 'problem' project, and it'll be easier to fix.
I made a project on eclipse for school to hand in. I edited some minor things in my program in a rush and handed it in without checking if my program still ran. Turns out it didn't, and I can't seem to find the error. I don't have time to figure it out. if I did a system restore to that point in time before I handed it in, will my project be at the same state it was, at that time?
thank you
Sorry, I know this isn't the right section but I'm new to this site and don't know where to go...
Good evening,
I discovered cloud9-ide a few weeks ago and I find its possibilities for workig in a projetc team incredible.
When I came up with it at our teammeating I mentioned it, and my collegue asked the question
"It is pretty nice that you can see what was changed and that you can reverse it, but does this can also restore deleted files?"
I stood there, awkwarldy, and had to admit that I have no idea if this works and if so, how?
Can someone help me out? Is restoring deleted file possible? This would be a HUGE contra, if not.
To restore a deleted file simply recreate it then look at the revision history. All previous versions will be there.
I have a VS 2008 VB.NET Solution, which is quite large. Every once in a while, if I take latest code from source control, I get hundreds of errors. These aren't real errors. They are all about classes not implementing functions/events from interfaces (which they DO implement).
"Class [class name] must implement [event or function name] for interface [interface name]"
I usually end up spending couple of hours doing a combination of: building/rebuilding the solution project by project, cleaning the solution, deleting everything locally, taking latest... etc. At some point, everything just magically builds. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this? Other people on my team experience this as well. I do not see any circular references.
Yes, I've been there.
The root of the problem is that some projects are trying to build and they are dependent on the dll's that other projects generate.
You can solve this by modifying the build order of your projects.
Once you do this, everything should work fine on the first build attempt after check out.
I've seen it as well.
I think it's related to some of the metadata/files Visual studio keeps around..my running theory is that VS isn't refreshing it's internal stuff when you do the latest pull from source control. Thus it tries to do a build, it thinks some files haven't been "updated" (thus it has an old intermediate object file lying around it uses instead) gets confused, and fails.
Generally doing a combination of Build->Clean Solution, Build->Build Solution solves it most of the time. I have, twice, had to blow away the entire build directory and pull a fresh copy from source control (Clearcase) and do a fresh build.
Edit: I have Clearcase integrated with VS2008, and do my checkouts/checkins/version history from within VS2008. Not sure if using the standalone windows tool would solve this issue, and haven't the time to test (not to mention being unable to reproduce the error consistantly)
Edit2: When i say twice, i mean twice in the last 12 months or so.
