Re: Step 10: You can now import the package to your branches too ---
* The quickest way to do this is to copy the sources file, .spec file and any patches from devel/ to each branch. Also check if the Makefile exists and copy it if necessary. After that, cvs add all copied files and commit them with: cvs commit
--- Could I just cvs-import the same source into the additional branches ? It does seem to work: Patches get added and committed, the sources are compared to lookaside and not uploaded again, the tag is created. The only thing left to do is make build from within each branch.
Any reason to not do that and instead manually copy around files, cvs add them, commit, which definitely seems more difficult and potential prone to error ? --sunset06 13:52, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
