Hi, I would like advice on how to keep my project under version control while incorporating changes from the code's main line of development at a foreign repository. From what I've read about distributed version control systems, this is where I should use Git or Mercurial. Hopefully I can do this efficiently through SVN since I do not have permissions to install Git or Mercurial.
Here is what I am currently trying. I would appreciate any advice if there is a better way to do this using SVN: Export the source code from read-only host repository at SourceForge to avoid writing out .svn directories and files. Import the unversioned source code to my repository at Google Code. Keep track of my revisions to the source code by committing to my repository at Google Code. Occasionally merge my working copy with the foreign SourceForge repository using "svn merge -r OLDREV:NEWREV http://source-repos.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/source-repos/trunk"; If there's a better way, please let me know!
