Hi, Right, If I perform merge A and this merges change X into the development branch. Then release and remove the working directory, change X was not checked into HEAD. Will that change get merged if I merge again (merge B) Because I think I practised first. So a clean copy of HEAD (no changes merged in, but some practises performed) merged with v1_1_patches using the -b switch will merge every change made from the branch point (v1_1) up to the end of the branch? Thanks, James. -----Original Message----- From: Tony Hoyle [mailto:tmh at nodomain.org] Sent: 30 March 2005 15:13 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: Re: [cvsnt] Merging branches.

It won't merge anything that has previously been merged.
