Hello All,
I'm trying to have the MELT branch following as closely as possible the
GCC trunk. I'm on Debian/Sid/AMD64 and have both svn (version
1.4.6dfsg1-1 of package subversion) and svnmerge (in package
subversion-tools of same version) which is coded in Python (I've got
version 2.4.4)
But I probably misunderstood what is the best tool for merging the GCC
trunk into the MELT branch. Usually the merging is straightforward,
because the MELT branch is mostly new files. Occasionnaly, I have to
"merge" by hand (i.e. handle conflicts, typically in gcc/passes.c).
What is the best tool to use, svnmerge or the merge subcommand of svn?
I'm quite confused actually. I tried to use svnmerge but I tend to think
it didn't do what I expect.
Ideally either a reference or the full sequence of commands to run would
be helpful (assuming I can restart from pristine MELT branch & trunk)
I'm sorry to ask, but I remember having read both hints.... I suppose
svnmerge is some wrapper above svn merge, but I know have doubts. And I
am not a Subversion expert. I know only the few commands I'm using daily...
Regards.
