Options
Command Line and Source Control

I believe I already know the answer to this question, but I want to verify.
In the gui when running a synchronization with a scripts folder, one of the options is to ensure that the files are checked out of source control prior to changing them. I've search through the command line switches and options and I don't see that. Am I correct in stating that in a command line situation the process of checking out files for modification should be done with direct calls from the script to the source control management system?
It's not an issue or anything. I just want to be sure I've got this right.

It sounds like you already know the score -- SQL Compare command-line doesn't integrate with SQL Changeset. The recommendation is still to use your source control provider's command-line utilities (if they exist) and wrap it all up in a batch file as described here:
