I guess so, and it did! :-)

Hehe - I will wee what I can do.

Yes - that it is. I did this several times before but yesterday I had a "bad day". SVN is the first versioning system I am using; I never used cvs or smth. before.

At the weekend I had some discussions with a friend of mine about branching-related things. There we got the idea of what someone else on the list called "shadow branches".

Beacause the weekend was long and the discussion stuff and ...... forget it. Just a little bit too tired yesterday - the weekend was too long!

Finally I can say: Merging is what is the "right way", merging directories is what makes sense and merging is what I did several times before and what I did yesterday evening to get all the things work! Also branching is the exactly right solution for my problem and for what I want to use it for! :-)

Hope I answered all your questions. :-)
