Hi,
I tried an experimental merge and much of the stuff looks like it will
go straight through. However there is a lot of 3-way meld resolution to
be done, hours of it, possibly days. Clearly there is no problem the
human taking breaks as long as the computer doesn't. But what if…
Has anyone any experience of checkpointing and restarting big Mercurial
merge resolutions?
not with Mercurial so far, but here's what I tend to do at work (Clearcase)
when things get complicated:
For every conflicting file I'll accept the "new" changes completely, overwriting old stuff. This is just to get the basic "merge"
operation through.
Afterwards, I look at the single "diffs" and do the actual merge work by trying to amend those places where some of the "old" stuff
is still needed.
Note how you can list the "to be resolved" files with
hg resolve -la
Hope this helps you further, you may want to combine the "amend" work with
using the MQ extension...
Regards,
Dirk
