I currently have two klibc trees,
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/klibc/klibc.git
and
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/klibc/klibc-kbuild.git
One of the differences between the trees is that a bunch of files have been rearranged. Unfortunately, it seems that whenever I try to merge one into the other, using cg-update from the former branch to the latter, if any of these files have been touched, cg-update fails, and I have to:
- touch these files in the "old location" manually; - manually apply the change to the new location (and, sad to say, I haven't even figured out how to take the numbers cg-update spits out and feed them to cg-diff); - commit.
Is there any way I can record in the repository that these files are actually moved files, and that the merge should apply the patch elsewhere?
Thanks,
