Abstract
The present invention can include a solution for optimizing the handling of source code requests by a software configuration management (SCM) system by using projected ancillary data. When a SCM system receives a request for a source code file from a software integrated development environment (IDE), ancillary data can be projected for the requested source code file. Ancillary data can represent supplementary source code files and/or a revision update for an existing source code file. The projected ancillary data can be appended to a response message that already contains the requested source code file. The response message can then be sent to the software IDE.
