Merging two separate files into one new file
Hi there,
I'm wondering how to merge (or move/copy) two existing, revision-controlled
files into a single new file, keeping the history intact. In other words: I'm
looking for the svn equivalent of the following Unix command:
cat A B > C; rm A B
Any useful hints appreciated.
Best
Patricia

*sigh* This I was afraid of. Too bad. Dear developers: This is an urgent
feature-request! :)

You would only be able to link the new file to the history of one of
the old files, using svn rename.
