Hei Paul, it is not about checking out. I simply don't have the cvs option in eclipse on the src folder, while i have it for the openjump module (in the cvs explorer view of eclipse). but maybe i don't see the relaion mhm.. that's curious. I just tried with the Tortoise client and it did somet

Stefan, I'm not sure why in eclipse you are just checking out the src directory and not the whole OpenJump and then just setting adding src as a source folder in eclipse. Paul - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express

you now guy's i agree with the things you say, but my question was also rather technically. While you answerd my first (obvious) question that i can use branching I still have a problem. The problem is, that i can not create (in eclipse) a branch from the src folder which is within the openjump

I took some time to read over the chapter in the CVS manual on branching and merging. I have some comments now on the method I think we should use for the development branch in the OpenJUMP CVS. I believe that we should use the method described in Michael's option #3 in this thread. This is basica

Thanks for all of the suggestions about how we can manage a development branch in the OpenJUMP CVS. I have downloaded the CVS manual and the CVS book this morning. Please give me a few days to read about branching and merging and then I will try to add something intelligent to this conversation. H

Hi Stefan, Sorry, I've a lot do this weekend (non IT stuff). Therefore I cannot offer concrete help before Monday. The best way of understanding CVS branching and merging is in my opinion the 5th chapter of the "CVS book". [1] So long, Sascha [1] http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.22/cvs_5.

Hei, hope it is ok to send a copy on the list. I am not sure about it, since it doubles efforts in copying and syncronizing the sources and i think nightly builts have to be somehow stable (i.e. are runnable) What would be possible is to make a new tree from the current module that contains t
