Description tomzi 2014-03-11 13:24:04 UTC
Use case: I want to merge all changes made during a user story into another branch

.) Select Porject/Subversion/copy/Merge Changes...
.) Merge from: 'One Repositroy Folder'
.) Select Repository Folder to merge from

Expected:
.) Click on 'Browse' next to a new 'Revisions: ' field
.) In a popup you search for 'Comments, Users,...' and can multiply select from revisions in a list of results. Press 'OK'
.) Enter Revsions: [ 38823, 38870-38873 ]

Currently:
You can only select the Start and Endrevision, which is not sufficient, especially when a lot of changes have been made by different users and those need to be merged back.

-> I looked it up - this is a standard feature in Subclicpse/Subversion in Ecplise. Most features are already in place in Netbeans, only a couple of additions are missing:
- A 'Revisions:' field, rather a 'Start' and 'End Revision' field.
- A extended Filter in the 'Browse' Popup for revisions to include: Users, Message, Date
- A Select box for each search result to multiply select revisions to merge.
