Why did my merge fail with "Parent 'xxx' has multiple children with the name 'yyyy'"?
I am accepting a changeset which affects just one text file from another stream. I get the "component that is pending gap resolution" message, and I say OK to adding the change to the merge queue.
It does some work (very slowly today). The Gap resolution window appears, but it has (File missing) (Parent missing) against the file I am merging. (This is odd because the file is there and so is the parent). I click on the file and click Merge... and it says that both the file and its parent are missing. . So I click "Set parent folder" and browse to the folder that has the file, click OK. and get another message I don't understand:
Parent '/BUILD/Toolkit/Examples/C#/ToolkitExample' has multiple children with the name 'MainWindow.xaml.cs'.
But there is only one file with this name? What is going on?
RTC 4.0.7, Eclipse client, on Windows 7
I am in a hurry so I have manually transferred the changes to the newer stream, but I'd like to know what I am doing wrong.
