Can't synchronize branch with trunk

Hi

I've encountered a strange problem, hopefully someone can help me here.
Below is a diagram of our repo

----->trunk------mod ABC-------------------------+
         +                                                 |
         |                                                  |
       branch-copy WPB-------Mods XYZ---+

1. From trunk we created a copy to a new dev branch for workpackage-B.
2. Commits XYZ where made to branch WPB
3. In parallel, mods ABC where made to trunk
4. When trying to bring changes into WPB via merge, none of the changes are
seen. They are basically ignored.


I've tried cherry picking as well, but this synchronization merge isn't
working. What could be wrong here?

This is the output from my eclipse IDE, the same happens from the
commandline:
Operation  Resource Path
---------
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Modified    /home/kiren/Documents/workspace-QA/V2.1.0-work-package-B
merge completed    /home/kiren/Documents/workspace-QA/V2.1.0-work-package-B

Hi Bob,

Its a standard merge command, that's why I haven't included it. Its a
standard merge though, it should work as far as I know.
Was wondering in what cases this issue would occur.

I will try and get the logs for you.

Regards
Kiren

It's really difficult to tell here from the limited information. I assume Eclipse uses the svn libs rather than show you the command line.

Can you run the command from the command line using svn.exe, show us your command and the output?
