Step 1: Create root directories
On your file system, create root directories for the RWE and SOWE. Also create a root
directory for each PWE needed by your team.
If you want SNiFF+ to create shared projects in your team's current shared source file
directory, use this directory as the root directory of your team's SSWE.
If you first want to create a new directory and copy the current set of your source files and
directories into it, do so now. Use this new directory as the root directory of your team's
SSWE.
In the rest of this chapter, we will often use the following notation when referring to your
working environment root directories:
<RWE_root_directory>
-- RWE root directory
<SSWE_root_directory>
-- SSWE root directory
<SOWE_root_directory>
-- SOWE root directory
<PWE_root_directory>
-- PWE root directory
Give all members of your team read-only permissions for the SSWE and SOWE root
directories.
Give all members of your development team write permissions for the RWE root directory.
Write permission for the RWE is necessary for performing version-control operations on
files in your Repository.
