CA Harvest SCM maintains the data under its control in one or more hierarchical sets of directories called repositories. The term item refers to a component of a repository to distinguish it from a file in the external directory structure. To clarify the distinction between data outside the repository and data within it, a further convention is used—external directories are referred to as client directories. Directories within the repository are referred to as item paths, or view paths if a particular view is being referenced.
The repository contents are determined by you. You can put one or more applications in a single repository, or you can split up an application over several repositories.
A repository is independent of any particular environment and is the basis for creating baselines and views. Baselines and views can include items from more than one repository, so there is not a disadvantage to using multiple repositories.
For security and ease of access, repositories are typically located on a server.
