Automatic code merges when merging streams


Kris Vishwanathan (61) | asked Apr 11 '11, 4:50 p.m.
We are trying to explore if its possible to do code merges automatically between the streams. We tried changing flow targets and delivering code, but that's more of a manual intervention.

Is there a way to merge the changes automatically and only require manual intervention if there are code conflicts.

If not did someone explore writing an extension to do so.

Appreciate your inputs in advance.

Thanks

That sounds like a bug (since the CLI doc states that it will
automerge). The dev team is investigating that in work item 168695.

So, our script takes a workspace, and two streams to merge. It first
accepts all changes from StreamA and then attempts to deliver to
StreamB.

We generated a conflict which can easily be resolved (auto-resolve in
the eclipse client does the right thing).

Instead the script fails because there is a conflict.

I do not see how, by using the CLI, one can automate what the eclipse
client does.
