If you loose when using svn as client, then you might wanna have a |
| 24 |
look at svk which already has star-merge capabilities. Or just |
| 25 |
don't merg until svn 1.3 is out (which will have it) |

play a bit around, feel it, and report your experiences. when having problems |
| 39 |
(like you seem to *always* complain) report in *detail*. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Finally, just don't use svn if you feel that uncomfortable with it. No one |
| 42 |
said that cvs will go away. I'm tired of reading your 'svn is hard to merge |
| 43 |
because it *is* hard to merge' posts :( |

Sorry, but this is how it comes over. |
