We are working on a large WinDev project and use SCM branches to manage both maintenance to existing customer releases and code from two developers. Having done made extensive changes to a release branch we wish to merge the changes back to the main branch. However the merging process now fails for us in several ways. 1) We receive many crashes at random during the merge process 2) When we have apparently been successful merging, the result is corrupt. On one instance a variable was renamed throughout our code. 3) Where a new class has been created in the branch, the reference to it in the project explorer appears in the merged result but the actual class does not 4) Attributes to windows have been changed by Windev, notably on one occasion every button that had an icon with text underneath it had the text moved to the side. No one ever made that edit, it just happened! We have run re-index and repair on several occasions as suggested when I submitted this to the forum previously, but this reported that no problem was found with the database. My conclusion however is that the SCM database is probably corrupt in some way. The problem has been submitted to PCSoft several times now but they are basically not interested unless I can submit 'A project that exhibits the problem' . The problem is I would have to send them the entire database (several gigabytes). Our development process is now stalled until we can find a workable solution for this This is the response I received from PCSoft "Thank you for letting us know. The developers have been informed and are working in order to improve the SCM. Sorry again for not being able to help you more. The Free Technical Support is entirely at your service."30WEBDEVen_UShttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/67308-scm-merge-continuing-problems/read.awpmoderateur@pcsoft.fr (El moderador)webmaster@pcsoft.fr (El webmaster)andrewpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/67308-scm-merge-continuing-problems-67371/read.awp1 Nov 2019 16:05:04 ZWe stopped using branches altogether and try to collaborate with each other as little as possible on all of our Windev projects.…https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/67308-scm-merge-continuing-problems-67371/read.awphttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/67308-scm-merge-continuing-problems-67371/read.awpSCM Merge continuing problemsPaulGruetpcsoft.us.windevhttps://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/67308-scm-merge-continuing-problems-67322/read.awp10 Oct 2019 11:34:54 ZHi Laurent Thank you for coming back to me, I have already created a new SCM database and re added my projects.
