Hello,<br>
<br>
Thanks to the assistance of John Arbash Meinel, we have been able to<br>
identify how we should<br>
be dealing with point fixes and code sharing between branches.<br>
<br>
The next step is how to determine programmatically the greatest common<br>
ancestor of a number<br>
of branches in a respository.<br>
<br>
I'm aware of "find-merge-base", which is a good start, but it only<br>
operates on two branches at a<br>
time, and its output is only useful as the input to another command (e.g.<br>
bzr log). I'm also aware of<br>
"ancestry" and "graph-ancestry", which provides more detail of the history<br>
of a particular branch.<br>
<br>
Does there exist a mechanism for graphing the merge history of all<br>
branches contained in a<br>
repository?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Chris<br>
