yes,that's what I mean.

external repos but different repository structure can do too? I tried
use tsvn to merge from.it always said not in the same repo...
thanks a lot.your response is very clear and detail.

> Basically a reintegrate is a two tree merge... it just figures out the revisions for you. You will usually use a --reintegrate to merge the changes made in a feature branch back into trunk. In order to use reintegrate you would have to make sure that you merge from the source folder (trunk) first. For example... you have a trunk and you want to work on a new feature... let's say Feature1. So, you create a feature1 branch from trunk.

Finally feature1 is done and you want to merge it back to trunk. So, you do a final merge from trunk to feature1 to make sure you have all the changes. Once that is done you will merge into trunk from branch choosing the reintegrate merge. This will take all the stuff you did in the feature1 branch and merge it into trunk. Once you are done you would deleted feature1 branch. (there is a way to continue using it, see the nightly svn book.)

Trunk continues on to eventually become release 2. Now you find there is a bug in ver1 so you want to create a fix. You fix the code in the ver1 branch and commit it. Now you want to merge that change back to trunk. So, you would do a normal merge from ver1 branch into trunk. This is "not" a reintegration because you haven't been merging all the trunk changes (which are really for rev2) into the rev1 branch. After you merge rev1 into trunk the bug fix is in trunk and the rev1 branch remains. You could later create another fix in rev1 branch and merge than into trunk... rinse and repeat.
