Check in files

The Pending Changes tab of the Unity Version Control (UVCS) window displays all your existing project files as Added and private. To include these files in the workspace and allow your collaborators to access them, you need to check them in.

When you check in your files, the Pending Changes tab refreshes and no longer lists the files you have checked in. The files that you check in compile into a changeset, which you can view in the Changesets tab.

To check in files:

  1. In the UVCS window, select the files you want to check in.
  2. In the text field, enter a comment to explain your changes.
  3. Select the Check in Changes button.

Note: If you install the VCS desktop app, the app displays a dialogue to notify you if you forget to add a comment before you check in the files.
