What is the recommended way to merge commits to AOO401? As I see it, the textbook steps would be to cherry-pick them from trunk, so:

1) Commit fix to trunk as revision N (in my case, 1518832, affecting main/extensions.lst)

2) Chdir to an AOO401 checkout

3) Check the diff to be applied with something like

main$ svn diff -c 1518832 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk/main/extensions.lst

4) Merge the commit by cherry-picking, with something like

main$ svn merge -c 1518832 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/trunk/main/extensions.lst

Is this the recommended way? Or are showstoppers supposed to be fixed on AOO401 first and be ported to trunk later, maybe with a single merge operation? If there are some conventions, I'll apply them for the fixes I'll commit during the weekend.

I do it exactly that way round, main reason is that I can only give an evaluation if the fix is save to go to AOO401 if I have done it, so I first do it on trunk where it is needed in any case. If it's safe to get to AOO401, I then merge it there.

HTH!

Regards,
  Andrea.
