Thanks in advanced. Sorry for the crosspost, but I know some of you FreeB= SD=20 developers do this all the time. Note the naming scheme ... wink wink. Okay fine, so I couldn't resit the developer like apache cvs tags :) say I have branches: RELENG_1(stable/prod), RELENG_2(release/qa), HEAD(current/devel= ) branch point tags: RELENG_1_BP, RELENG_2_BP tags: p6_RELENG_1_0_PRE1, p6_RELENG_1_0_PRE2, RELENG_1_0, RELENG_1_1_PRE1= =20 p6_RELENG_1_1, RELENG_2_0 eventually equivalents for RELENG_3 will be created from HEAD and support= for=20 RELENG_1 dropped. now say my respository has 4 files file1.pm file2.pm dir2/file3.pm dir1/file4.pm I change the last 3 on HEAD. Now a week later I want to MFC these change= s and=20 only these changes from HEAD to RELENG_2 branch. One of the big problems = I=20 have here is say that during the previously mentioned week, I change file= 1.pm=20 and dir/file4.pm. I only want the initial changes MFC'ed as I have not h= ad a=20 "burn in" period long enough to move the back from the devel branch (HEAD= ) to=20 our qa branch(RELENG_2). I think I have to add more tags to the tree to d= o=20 this, but I am not sure. Please don't confuse this with wanting to merge branches into the trunk. = That=20 I know how do and it is not what I want. =46rom FreeBSD, theres how we MCF new files. How do we change this to MFC multiples that already exist ? % cd sys/alpha/include % cvs update -rRELENG_4 cvs update: Updating .
