Hello,
I was happy with svn for a while, but recently I started a new branch where I moved/renamed a few files, and merging became a less pleasant experience: I have to manually generate diffs from the trunk and patch the moved files on the branch (apart from remembering which revisions were already merged).
I cloned the svn repo, checked out the branch, but when I try to merge from master, I got a lot of conflicts. I guess this is because I did a few merges already in svn (before the repo cloning), but git is not aware of that. How could I merge the changes on trunk starting from a specified revision number, so that only new stuff gets merged? If that could be done, I would be happy with git-svn (future merges should be easy), and never look back.
Please CC me in your reply, I'm not subscribed to the list.
Thanks, Peter
