Projects or Assemblies Depended On by Other Projects ==================================================== Answers the question, "What projects have a reference to this item, and where do they live in the repository?" Parameters ---------- * Projects (true/false): * True to include projects in the report, false to exclude * Assemblie (true/false): * True to include assemblies in the report, false to exclude * Item Name (optional): * The name of a specific project or assembly to look up Columns ------- * Item Name * The name of the project or assembly * Path * The relative path to the item from the repository root Grouping -------- There is one grouping row per project or assembly in the repository. This row contains the name of the item and the count of the referencing projects. Detail Rows ----------- Each detail row under the grouping represents a project that references the grouping item, and the path to that project. Sorting ------- The groupings are sorted in descending order by the count of reference items. The detail rows are sorted alphabetically by Path, so that projects under a similar directory hierarchy will cluster together. Usage ----- This report is helpful when an engineer is making a change to a heavily-referenced project, but they are uncertain about all of the reference projects that will be impacted by that change. It also helps to expose when projects have a reference to an item unintentionally that was not otherwise apparent or intuitive.
