+1 for me. Having recently moved from Perforce to SVN I'm a little surprised how poorly supported merging is (in general). In the past we'd create branches for any non-trivial development task and integrate back into the trunk only after acceptance testing.
Whilst Perforce's clients are certainly no shining example of usability they do support a very capable merging GUI. Of course it is rather pricey in comparison. ;-) ~ Robin | [email protected] | twitter: robincharlton 2009/6/14 echo <[email protected]> > > I bought and use Versions, and use Subcommander for svn merge + svn > switch.
