Ok - it's Friday and I've got to interact with svn again.. I'm using git-svn, and I've not followed the guidance. Development has gone on in git branches and merges - but now I need to commit the changes back into svn, and dcommit is, understandably, not very happy. I'm intending to instead do something like a git format-patch svn-branch..git-branch git checkout svn-branch ... apply all the patches ... git commit git svn dcommit # back to the git work git checkout git-branch # this shouldn't have to do merging - but it will have the parents to make it clear where the last merge happened from ? git merge svn-branch I'm happy that I'm bludgeoning changes in one big blob into SVN, as I can reasonably say 'if you want the real details, go look at gitweb) I've tried doing this with git checkout svn-branch git merge --squash git-branch But I don't get the result I'm expecting - what have I missed? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
