RE: Best method to replace a branch's code

[Fouts Christopher (6452)]

Ahhh, totally new meaning. I don't have a "simple" solution
to this. You almost need to write a script that would "cp -Rf"
the files from brachA to branchB.

thanks but I need to retain branchA and branchB - just overwrite branchB
with code from branchA

Doh, my bad! However isn't renaming the branch the
simplest approach?

That doesn't rename the branch, it tags the head revision on the branch. To
rename a branch you have to use cvs admin -n.
