Is it possible to see what files have been checked out by another user?

Hi applenaut,

 

If the other user did an exclusive checkout (locking) (typically a workflow for developers working on non mergeable content) the the answer is YES.

 

Otherwise, if files are not locked, the answer is "no" because the server doesn't keep track of the local checkouts.

 

And we do it for a reason: performance.

 

Keeping the list of checked out files on the server is a performance killer (that's why we removed it like 3 major versions ago, something TFS and P4 ended up doing too).

 

 

What are you exactly missing?

 

Cheers,

 

pablo

Hello Applenaut,

if all the users are sharing the same server then it's possible to get the full list of locked files using the "cm listlocks" command. 

Additionally the Gluon interface will also give you the info for the items displayed in your items view.
