It should do. However, you will still have to 'cvs add' and 'cvs commit' them on the maintenance branch. Another possibility. especially for directories are not going to be merged back into the HEAD and whose content is largely the same, is to merge them out from HEAD into maint. Not having followed the details of the proposed changes very closely, I would have to look at individual cases.Christian Geisert wrote:for the documentation for the maintenance release I think the best thing is to copy src/documentation over from trunk and then add a simple <exec command="forrest"> to build.xml Comments?I had a thought left over from our discussion of branching a few weeks ago that might help here. I convinced myself at the time that, when checking out the maintenance branch, using the "-f" option on a checkout would get the trunk version of any files that aren't on the maintenance branch. I am headed out the door or I would try it right now. I suppose that it is possible that doing so would also check out some files that would break the build or override something that we don't want overridden, but I think it would be worth a try.
