The expectation is that most people will merge to the release branch only periodically, when there are a number of release-ready changes pending.
As usual, this may get quite complex if changesets are interdependent. I.e., it may be that one patch that went into trunk only works because of another patch in trunk, but would fail in release without the other there applied first.
If this shows up when a merge is made of a library into the release ready branch it should be considered a bug as it must be a break in an interface contract. If this is an obtacle to making this system work - then there is no system that can work. Robert Ramey
