Message Thanks for previous replies from Tyler,
 
In fact after searching the mailing list briefly I cannot find a
concrete answer,
maybe I shall change my question a bit:
 
(Assume Branch-X is a branch directly copied from Trunk )
By keeping merge-info ONLY in the top directory in Trunk and Branch-X
(i.e. removing merge-info from all sub-directories /files), is that
enough for
future merge trackings between Trunk and Branch-X ?
 
Thanks a lot
 
Adrian

Subject: Cleanup merge-info in source


(Sorry I think I made some wrong statements in my previous email, please
just ignore my previous mail.
Please accept my apology)
 
My trunk has once branched to Branch-A, and I do have some features
merging to-and-fro between
trunk and Branch-A, and incured some file rename. As a result (I guess
so), some files under trunk contains
merge-info property related to Branch-A.
 
Later, I created some release branches of trunk (let's say, Rel-1.0).
Whenever I did some cherry-picking
merge from trunk to Rel-1.0, there are always a lot of files (other than
those merged file) being committed to Rel-1.0.
Those files only have changes in merge-info at the line about trunk.
 
These changes are really annoying. If I am sure that I won't have any
merging between Branch-A and trunk,
is it safe that I simply remove all merge-info of all subdirectory and
files in Branch-A, trunk and Rel-1.0, and
leave only the merge-info in the top directory? What may be the
consequence of doing this?
 
Thanks a lot
 
Adrian
