Get Latest Version from source control

Get Latest Version lets us grab the latest revisions of files from the repository to our local machine, in most case, to working folder. The command creates a private copy of the folders/files for us.

Get Latest Version is mostly used in these situations:

  • Update our local copy with others’ modified copy;
  • Grab all the files within a project (recursively) for backup if necessary;
  • Grab all the files within a project (recursively) for project build;
  • Grab all the files for a latest product release

Similar to Add, Get Latest Version supports recursive and non-recursive modes. To some extent, Add and Get Latest Version can be seen as a pair of opposite operations, with Add working as upload and Get Latest Version working as download.
