Hi all,
while having a little review of our devtools I noticed the we use svnmerge in archrelease to merge changes from trunk into the repo dir. This is very expensive and sometimes fails for more or less known reasons.
So, I wonder why we don't just do something like this:
svn rm repos/extra-i686 svn cp trunk repos/extra-i686
I did not check if this would requrie a commit after the rm or if we could do it in one run. But it should be a lot faster and safer though.
We agreed a while back that we should do what you propose: We don't actually want the repos/ stuff to be merged with trunk, but be exact snapshots (tags) of trunk.
+1 to this.
Agree. Merge fails often enough that I end up doing that anyway... Allan
