Branch/merge question....

[Urban Gabor]

Hi,

I have a rather specific issue here:

Suppose we have created a branch for a development in our
module called branch_A for a longer time. During the
development we have decided to intagrate all changes on the
main branch into branch_A (and we have tagged both the
main/HEAD and the branch). After completing the task, we are
to integrate the branch into the main, but the second
merging brings out a rather annoying number of conflicts.
The situation is the same when we try to merga main into
branch_A again.

As far as I know, the merge algorithm uses the younges
common ancestor of the source files. Am I able to set the
merga base to the last successfull integration? I recon this
would blow away some of our conflicts..

Thx in advance,

Gabaux
