2.26   How do I merge between branches?

All development occurs under the py3k branch and bug fixes are expected to be
merged into two additional branches, which are release2x-maint and
release3x-maint.

Assuming a change is committed into py3k as revision 0001, you
merge into the release2x-maint by doing:

# In the release2x-maint branch checkout.
svnmerge.py merge -r 0001
svn commit -F svnmerge-commit-message.txt  # r0002

# In a release3x-maint checkout.
svnmerge.py merge -r 0001
svn commit -F svnmerge-commit-message.txt  # r0003


# Optional

In rare situations where you want to backport a security fix or a
documentation fix into release26-maint branch: 

#In the release26-maint checkout.

svnmerge merge -S /python/branches/release27-maint -r0002
svn commit -F svnmerge-commit-message.txt  # r0004
