Okay, accept that. The only remaining way I can think of may be: Why not ignore such a file in this situation? I have to admit that this file may contain any content, so it cannot be ignored easily. The solution could be adding exactly that option which I used the file for: add the option "do not merge automatically", or "always prompt for user confirmation on merge". And then, this option could be ignored during merging for file comparison. What about that? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TortoiseSVN" group.
