Contains a collection of Argument elements.
Get all files and repositories from repository 'Mainline/Widget' recursively from the 'Widget 1.0' branch to the working directory setup for user 'administrator'. This call forces the file retrieval from the server even if the local file is current and overwrites any local files that are writable with the server copy.
<sscmget
serverconnect="localhost:4900"
serverlogin="administrator:"
file="/"
branch="Widget 1.0"
repository="Mainline/Widget"
recursive="true"
force="true"
overwrite="true"
/>
Get version 1 of the file 'Mainline/Widget/Widget.java' from the 'Widget 1.0' branch to the working directory setup for user 'administrator'. Writable local files are not overwritten, even if they are out of date.
<sscmget
serverconnect="localhost:4900"
serverlogin="administrator:"
quiet="true"
file="Widget.java"
branch="Widget 1.0"
repository="Mainline/Widget"
overwrite="false"
writable="true"
version="1"
/>
Get all files and repositories labeled with 'Release 1.0.0' (even those removed from Surround) from repository 'Mainline/Widget' recursively from the 'Widget 1.0' branch to the '${build}/src' directory. Writable local files are overwritten with the server copy.
