I'm fairly new to svn, and I have things set up and running well. I wanted to test out a scenario where a file controlled by svn gets changed outside of svn inside the working copy, and now I'm lost and can't find much help on what to do.
Here's my example: I setup the hooks folder as a svn project. Checked it out onto my windows box and made a small change, then committed the changes. Now I went through my command shell and manually changed a file outside of svn. Then I went back to my windows box and editted the same file with a different change. Now the original file contains: ">>>>>>> .r3" at the bottom Also I have some more files inside my working directory too: pre-revprop-change.tmpl pre-revprop-change.tmpl.mine pre-revprop-change.tmpl.r2 pre-revprop-change.tmpl.r3 Can someone please explain to me: 1) Why does >>>>>>> get put into the bottom of my files? 2) What are the 3 copies of this file for? 3) And now how do I get these files merged back into one copy with the changes made inside svn included and the changes made outside svn excluded?
