I'm sorry, may have missed some points earlier that could answer my
questions:

-you specify all bugs form the trunk/branch that should be included in a
new build

Of course the tool should check for all cases if there is a version in the
history of updated files that is not included in the base label + list of
bugs and warn about it.

Hey Kristis,

Yes, very much so. I just checked out the description of the feature
enhancement and this would probably solve a lot of requirements for
management.

Okay I just read through the comments and from what I understand, you are
selectively choosing which bugs to implement into the next release. A
question I have is that the changes you make for each bug, where are they
going to be stored? Is there another folder besides:

trunk
tags
branch

e.g.


trunk
tags
branch
bugs/002
bugs/003
bugs/004

Also, how are conflicts going to be issued? Since you can ultimately delay
inserting a bug, for lets say 10 release builds, then the base files that
you initially used to start working on a bug might not be usable...? (Sorry
if my question isn't too clear, I'll try to think of a situation)...


My actual real life name is Homer Sampson (changed it officially) so don't
think I didn't provide my real name!
