Ok after having a few more discussions here's a situation that we face
frequently.
Lets say Bob is working on Trunk\ProjectX\File1 and John is working on
Trunk\ProjectX\File3 and Trunk\ProjectX\File7. Now Bob needs to leave early
for the day, but his code is not complete, regardless he comits his code, so
that it's safe within the repository and gets revision 21. Now John at the
end of the day comits his code and gets revision 22.
How can a partial merge be done using TortoiseSVN to get John's code, but
exclude Bob's due to it not being complete yet? Performing an update would
get you revision 22, which in turn would include Bob's code from revision
21.
I was looking over the merge options within Tortoise, but I was unable to
easily indentify a way of handling this type of situation, if it's even
possible to do so.
Thanks.
