> We are using 1.6 SVN.
> We like to svn merge from our branch A to trunk.
> We have been diligent in svn merge from trunk to A.
> These svn merges from trunk to branch A also include --record-only merges
> too, in addition to regular merges.
> Development on branch A has stopped.
> Now we like to merge branch A to trunk using --reintegrate option.
> But we dont know what to expect if using this option fails on us.

> Could we perform a clean co of branch A into another working copy and then
> perform svn merge --reintegrate to trunk there ?
> Will we get more conflicts simply because the new working copy doesnt have
> the mergeinfo list like the first working copy of branch A ?
> Will this plan B work ?
>

> 2) How do we resolve conflicts during svn merge --reintegrate process ?
> Would you share the steps for us to make the merge go smoothly ?

3) Is mergeinfo a global or local property ? it seems that whenever a new
checkout is done, mergeinfo list matches up with other working copies of
the same branch.
