Mercurial/Tortoiehg merge with branch without update


I have a Hotfix and Trunk branches, so I need to merge fixes to my trunk. All the guides tell me that I must first update to Trunk then merge with Hotfix.

That works, but I want to make subsequent merges, for instance if the fixes are really urgent. So I do not want to update to Trunk every time.

So the question is: Is there any way to merge my hotfix changes without updating to Trunk branch every time?


Solution

  • No. You must always be updated to the branch that you wish to continue.
