RE: RE: integration of two-way merge (edit conflicts) tool possible?

(Note that scooter is currently beta testing a 3-way merge, YAY!)

If you are doing "real" merges, then I highly suggest you use a 3 way merge tool to do the initial merge, you can test/verify with beyond compare (2 way diff) if there is something more complex that the 3 way merge tool does not handle easily.

I always back up my conflicted file sets (again using Beyond compare to keep folder structure in the backup location), just in case a merge goes wrong, it can be redone manually.

TortoiseSVN->Settings->External Tools->Diff External Tools->Merge

Pay attention to the ballon tips. They tell you which parameters you cann pass on the command line.
