Major purpose of the Release Manager™ is the software version control. It is primarily built for JATS and ANT build system.

Since the Release Manager™ is a web based application, multiple users can easily collaborate in building a release using just their Internet browsers. Initially installed, users can setup multiple city projects, with multiple version trees within each city project. Each version tree again can have any number of releases.

Use city projects to logically separate each project. "Logically" because you can still if you want, share the packages or releases between other projects.

Use version trees to run multiple releases in parallel as each version tree is designed to represent one line of work flow.

Use releases to build your packages in a correct order, using the correct versions.
