<p>Basic VCS operations can be accessed through the VCS menu. Most of
these functions act on the current selection, i.e. on the selected items
in the VCS Explorer if it is present, or on the currently selected
file editor, or on the currently selected item in the
<code>Tools-&gt;Views-&gt;Files</code>.
In most cases, the VCS contextual menu offers more control on
VCS operations. See <a href="The-Version-Control-Contextual-Menu.html#The-Version-Control-Contextual-Menu">The Version Control Contextual Menu</a>.

<dl compact="compact">
<dt><b>Explorer</b></dt>
<dd><p>Open or raise the VCS Explorer. See <a href="The-VCS-Explorer.html#The-VCS-Explorer">The VCS Explorer</a>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>Update all projects</b></dt>
<dd><p>Update the source files in the current project, and all imported
sub-projects, recursively.

<dt><b>Query status for all projects</b></dt>
<dd><p>Query the status of all files in the project and all imported sub-projects.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>Create tag...</b></dt>
<dd><p>Create a tag or branch tag starting from a specific root
directory. The name of the tag is a simple name.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><b>Switch tag...</b></dt>
<dd><p>Switch the local copy to a specific tag. The name of the tag depends
on the external VCS used. For CVS this this the simple tag name, for
Subversion the tag must conform to the default repository layout. For
a branch tag this is <code>/branches/&lt;tag_name&gt;/&lt;root_dir&gt;</code>.
</p></dd>
