[Monotone-devel] monotone update overwrites local changes

2005-05-10 Thread Robert Bihlmeyer
Suppose I have two working copies A and B, and an unknown file F in both. I then add A/F, commit this, and finally update B. monotone will trample over the contents of B/F overwriting it with the version committed from A/F.
