Class PromoteCommand

java.lang.Object
  nl.toolforge.karma.core.cmd.DefaultCommand
      nl.toolforge.karma.core.cmd.impl.PromoteCommand

All Implemented Interfaces:

Command

public class PromoteCommand

extends DefaultCommand

Implementation of the 'codeline freeze' concept. Karma increases a modules' version (using whichever pattern is defined for it), thus allowing for a freeze. Development can commence immediately on the module. In that sense, it is not a freeze, just a tiny hick-up in the development process, as modules are generally small in nature.
