Turn Eclipse to create Branch/merge/switch usage under SVN

Recent projects require that you create a branch on the SVN trunk, use a branch to make bug changes to the program, and develop new features on the trunk. The bugs on the branch are modified and can be merged onto the trunk after publishing. The project program can be switched between the trunk and the branch to achieve simultaneous maintenance of the backbone and the branch.

1. Create a branch

Creating a branch is actually a copy of the program to the specified branch directory, as shown in:

Right click on the project name, pop-up menu, select "Team", then "Branch/tag", pop up the following page:

The copy to URL in will fill in the path address where the new branch is created, followed by a copy of the program to that directory, forming a new branch. Click "Next":

Select the current version and click "Next"

If you tick the following switch working the program project for copy to new branch/tag,eclipse will automatically switch to the branch. We do not choose here, we will switch ourselves later.

This creates a 1.0 branch.

2. Merging

You can merge from the trunk to the branch, or you can merge from the branch to the trunk, optionally selecting the appropriate options, such as:

The options in:

1) Merge from trunk to branch

2) Merge from branch to trunk

3) Merge the changes on the trunk to the branch

4) Merge 2 branches to trunk

5) Manually specify modifications that do not need to be merged from the trunk to the branch

6) manually specify the modifications to merge from the trunk to the branch

The display does not have any modifications, so no merging is necessary.

3. Toggle

Right-click on the project name and select "Team" –> "switch to another branch/tag/revision".

Select the destination address you want to switch to, click OK.

In this way, you can switch between the trunk and several branches in the project to implement the modified commit operation for the different versions/branches of the program.
