Hi All We are using 1.6 SVN. We have been syncing trunk to branch A and they are both synced up and ready for merge. We are trying to svn merge branch A to our trunk. But the branch was not created right in that it has a missing directory.
eg. branch A has src directory src Trunk has src and install directories src install [root@host Trunk]# svn merge --reintegrate --dry-run https://url.com/svn/feature/atlas svn: 'https://url.com/svn/feature/atlas@1234' must be ancestrally related to 'https://url.com/svn/trunk@1234' How do we overcome this as src folder has quite a few large projects code base ? Using ignore-ancestry would ignore mergeinfo metadata and we're want to avoid duplicate code (from the trunk when merging from Trunk to Branch A) from the branch back to the Trunk. Mergeinfo property is only available at Trunk top level directory. Other mergeinfo properties at subdir levels had been removed before the trunk to branch A syncing began. Please advice with steps on a workaround we need. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
