Hi, In the FreeBSD project, we use "vendor branch" and merge changes that happen there to trunk. The FreeBSD project's repository can be accessed at svn://svn.freebsd.org/base or via web at http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base .
Now I'm facing a problem with the merging approach and would like to know if there is a good solution to this. Long story short, I have done a series of 'svn mv' before applying new vendor code into vendor branch so can maintain file's history (commit message can be seen at [1]). When merging that changeset to ^/head/contrib/file, I got a lot of conflicts, complaining on local modification vs incoming delete. Is there a way to keep the file history when doing the merge? The repository was converted from CVS where we do heavy repo-copies to maintain that. (One way I can think about is to repeat the 'svn mv's in the target directory, then apply the merged version against it, then do a 'svn merge --record-only ^/vendor/file/5.11 ^/vendor/file/dist/ .' in head/contrib/file, but I'm afraid of losing the "copy" relationship on files added during my import).
