Error description
In Rhapsody 7.5.2 two units can't have the same name, e.g. test.sbs. Instead a unit that is created with the same name as an existing unit is renamed, e.g. test_1.sbs. However this is not the case in Rhapsody 7.5.3. In 7.5.3 a unit created with the same name as an existing unit is moved to a sub-folder, but keeps the name it was given, e.g. test.sbs and test/test.sbs. The problem is that this behavior was not recorded in documentation, although it led to problems with Configuration Management between two versions of Rhapsody which were documented to have the same behavior with regards to renaming units with the same name. An example of this can be seen if you pass a project from 7.5.3 to 7.5.2 using Clearcase. This causes problems using diffmerge in 7.5.2 as files are renamed when getting a revision. Can information showing the different behavior of handling units with the same name be provided in Rhapsodys documentation please.
