I have some scripts in beta state that allow to
- Create a backport proposal PR from a number of trunk revisions.
- Apply such a backport proposal PR to a svn working copy.
- Apply a PR against trunk to a svn working copy
If someone has a good idea where to store them in our svn tree (outside of the
httpd source itself) I am happy to commit and share
them.
