Hi,
I must be doing something wrong or I'm expecting something I shouldn't:
(1) I updated from the trunk (HEAD) (2) Fixed a couple of things (3) Commited to the trunk (4) Updated from RC_1_34 (over the same working folder) (5) Merged "merged_from_RC_1_34" and "HEAD" into working folder.
For step 5 I'm using ToroiseCVS 1.8.26 using the merge dialog as follow:
Start: merged_from_RC_1_34 End: HEAD
After that I get lots of updated, and even conflicted, files, way beside those which are mine.
Is that expected? I figured I would get only my files merged.
It's only expected if you merge anything more that just your files.
If it is, is it OK to just commit my files and not the others?
I wouldn't risk it as errors in those other files might mask real problems in your code, or the interaction of your code with others, etc. I would suggest going back and doing the merge only with the files you changed.
What about the tag?
You only move the tag for the files you merged. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
