Hi,
is it somehow possible to create more fine-grained (or conceptually
nested) revisions? More precisely, I want to perform one atomic commit
that creates more then one revision. This multiple revisions would then
probably have consecutive numbers and reflect one "aggregated" change to
the repository.
The reason I am interested something like this is the current merge
behavior. When merging changes from a branch back into the trunk, I
currently to a merge and a commit, which creates a single new revision,
containing all changes made in the branch. While conceptually correct,
this is not very informative when looking at the branch later on. I
would rather like to see multiple commits, just like on the branch, each
one encompassing changes of a limited scope.
As these changes might break the trunk in-between (some final cleanup
might be needed for the merge), I want these changes to be applied in
one atomic step, so just replaying commits is not an option.
Of course there are many difficulties when trying to merge branches as
sketched above, but before thinking of these I would like to know if
Subversion could even express the semantic I want. Or perhaps there is a
different solution to my problem?
