Merging Branches and temporary suspension of keyword

2000-04-12 Thread Aditya . Sanghi
Hi! We merge our bugfixes branch every night into the main trunk just so that our bugfix branch does not travel too far from the main trunk. On the main trunk we do a cvs update -j BRANCH_NAME module/file/dir However far too many files get conflicts just because of the keywords. The Open
