Abstract
Software configuration management includes removing a selected section from a first artifact in a first stream. The first artifact includes a plurality of sections, and a second artifact in the first stream is created including the selected section. The second artifact does not include at least one other section of the plurality of sections. An annotation is generated using a processor that specifies the first artifact, a range within the first artifact corresponding to the selected section, and the second artifact into which the selected section is moved. The annotation is used to apply changes implemented in selected artifacts from one stream to another.
