It looks like there was a slight "oops" making the branch. https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/ <https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/%5C>v0_98_4_maint
points to one level above the source tree. See: http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/matplotlib/branches/v0_98_4_maint/ Was this intentional? In any case, the svnmerge setup I did this morning is incorrect. Would you like me to fix that, or would you rather remove and recreate the branch? If we don't fix the branch, I would suggest changing the instructions for checking out the branch to: svn co https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/ <https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/%5C>v0_98_4_maint/matplotlib mpl98.4 Cheers, Mike John Hunter wrote: > > On Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 11:30 AM, Michael Droettboom <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: > > > This will make merging slightly easier, (since the -S parameter is > not required), and it is generally good practice in the long run > to not keep extra branches lying around.
