CVS and importing external projects [message #61911] Thu, 19 June 2003 11:26
Eclipse UserFriend
Is there a way to handle the mechanism described in the CVS user guide when
handling imported sources withn eclipse.

For instance:

Say I get a distribution of software (call it version 1.1). I want to
import it into CVS (giving it a version tag of SRC_1_1) then check it out
and hack on it locally. Later on I get another source drop (version 1.2).
I want to import it as SRC_1_2 and then merge the changes between 1.1 and
1.2 plus my local enhancements. Ideally I want to do this with eclipse so I
can use it do the merge using the visual diff support, etc.

I'm having some difficulty understanding the differences between updating
and synchronizing with a repository and haven't been able to determine the
equivalent gestures in eclipse to do what I describe above. Can anyone
help!?

Thanks in advance!

Mike
