Asymetric behavior in branch and merge? [message #726059] Fri, 16 September 2011 13:40 Go to next message

Hi,

I can make a branch in 1 step, but how to I merge in 1 step?

A framework I'm developing consists of multiple projects. This has lead to the following repository layout:

framework
+ trunk
|   + pr1
|   + pr2
|   + pr3
+ branches
|   + bug27
|      + pr1
|      + pr2
|      + pr3


I create a branch by opening the svn repository viewer, rightclick the trunk and then select "new branch". So with 1 action, i branch 3 projects. Then I create a new workspace and checkout the branch by opening the repository browser, right click the corresponding branch and select "check out as...". By choosing "Find projects in the children of the selected resource" I end up with checking out the involved projects from the branch.

When it comes to merging the branch in the trunk, I create a workspace in the same way I created the one for the branch. So I end up with multiple projects in the root of my workspace. I can select each project individually and merge it with the corresponding one from the branch. However, is there a way of merging all involved projects in the branch with the ones in the workspace? Is there a way of merging the workspace with the trunk (i.s.o. individual workspace projects)?

Greetings,
Wilbert

Hallo Wilbert,
actually I do not checkout branches, usually I switch to them ...

If you want to do the same allways repeating operations on several projects can you think of using some kind of scripting? SVN Command line, ANT or something?

regards,
Olly

Hi Olly2,

Interesting point of view. I could do that but then I had to perform that action for every (relevant) project in my workspace. Possible but not a one click solution. Thanks anyway (as your tip saves me from creating a new workspace for each branch)!

Groeten,
Wilbert.
