Re: Merge 'G' -- what the h* is it?

Karl,

Thank you. I did check "svn help status" for description of the letter,
but did not try update (comes from a long history of not using CLI client,
so I do not know where to look for a specific help text). Also, I DID go
to svnbook.red-bean.com, but again was searching for information on
merging, not updating. As you already noticed, svn is a bit
help-challenged in certain areas :)

Br,

merGed -- meaning that there were local modifications in the file *and*
new changes brought in via the merge (or update), but the two did not
conflict (otherwise you would have seen "C").
See:
   svn help update
   svnbook.red-bean.com
It would be nice if 'svn merge' pointed the user to the help for update,
since they use the same status letters.
