Good lord this is complicated. Subversion doesn't seem to be doing a
good job making my life easier. I always knew exactly what to do when
we used PVCS. Now, I find myself deleting the .svn folders and copying
files way more than makes me comfortable.
It seems that's what I have to do to clean up my mess.
This morning I reintegrated from a branch (./branches/TRHistoryWnd) back
into the trunk (./trunk/pcs). Since, then at least 2 of us have
committed changes into the branch.
It seems like what I need to do is:
1) Checkout the TRHistoryWnd branch and delete all the .svn folders.
2) Delete the TRHistoryWnd branch
3) Create a branch call TRHistoryWnd
4) Checkout the new TRHistoryWnd branch
5) Copy the tree made in step on over top of my new working copy
6) Commit back to my branch.
7) Don't ever re-integrate until you're completely done.
Thanks for your attempts at helping me.
