The User page

A shelved changelist is a pending changelist that has a copy of one or more files from within the changelist stored on the server. Shelved files are not versioned: if you update the shelved files, the update replaces any existing files on the changelist's shelf.

Note

Swarm can use multiple shelved changes to record the history of reviews. See Internal representation for details.

Swarm uses shelved changelists as the basis of its code review feature. However, not all shelved changelists are reviews. Users may shelve files for other reasons, including ensuring that the Helix Versioning Engine has a copy of work in progress, or as a way to move temporary work from one workspace to another.

The Request Review button for a shelved changelist Click the Request Review to start a Swarm review for any shelved changelist that is not already involved in a review.

The Request Review button for a shelved changelist Click the View Review to view the Swarm review associated with shelved changelists when a review has already started.
