Merge confirmation window
Use this window to specify the merge operation. In Merge from version, the path for the source contributor is displayed. In To version, the path for the target contributor is displayed. If the target contributor already has a successor version, you see the following message to the right of Do you want to perform a merge?.
Warning: The to-version is not the latest version on branch!
Under Do you want to perform a merge?, you have the following options.
- Select Yes and Merge the
element graphically to force the Diff Merge tool to start so you
can complete the merge through the graphical user interface (GUI), even if
the merge is trivial. This gives you the opportunity to perform some operations
prior to the merge starting.
If you clear Merge the element graphically, the merge can proceed without your intervention if no conflicts occur.
- Select No. Draw a merge arrow without performing
a merge.
This option is useful in these situations:
- You merged the versions outside DevOps Code ClearCase® control.
- You want to overwrite the target version instead of merging.
In Merge comment, enter text that describes the purpose of the merge. The comment appears in the event record for the element.
