Hi,

 

That’s what we want to do but when I commit the file and then choose merge the files appears in the merge list and we don’t know how to remove it from the merge process ? Maybe we just missed something, coud you give us more details on how you would do it please ?

 

Many thanks,

Thomas

Can't you simply commit the change to the config file as a separate commit and not merge that particular change back to the trunk ?

Hi,

 

We are working in standard way recommended by SVN with trunks, branches and tags.

 

We are using Visual studio 2005. When we do a branch for a project we change parameters within files like the web.config for example that are only specific to that branch (eg: Database Settings), when Visual Studio re-compiles the project it's also rewrite its on configuration file of the solution.

 

The question I have is following, what is the best way in such a configuration to merge changes from the branch back to the trunk or to the trunk to the branch. We don't want to have these files merged as these are specific to the branch and not related to the trunk.

 

Is there any way to ignore some files in the merge process so they don't get merge over ? In the merge screen its seems there is no way to choose which files are merge, its an all or nothing solution apparently.

 

Or maybe our process is wrong and there are other ways of handling this kind scenarios ?

 

Many thanks,

Thomas
