Bearing in mind that I am a branch newbie, this seems a bit overly complicated. I envisioned having a single branch which would be the svn trunk before you merge your transforms in. Call this MAINTAIN_91 or something like that. Then merge the transforms branch into the trunk, and close or move the transforms branch as you see fit. That way we have one active branch (the 0.91 maintenance) and one trunk. I don't see the benefit of having RELEASE_0_91_0 and MAINT_0_x branches, since we can use use -r checkouts to get 0.91.0 right? Basically, I hope we can get by w/o multiple branches for the 91 maintenance. But feel free to educate me :-) JDH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
