I guess this is where aliases would be nice to be able to do something
like
tla alias arch address@hidden/cpc--stable--1.0
tla alias parth address@hidden/cpc--parthDev--4.0
so that I can then do:
tla missing arch
tla star-merge arch
[REVIEW]
tla commit
and from stable:
tla missing $name
tla star-merge $name
[REVIEW]
tla commit
[...]
Well, don't forget you can always do
export arch="address@hidden"
export parth="address@hidden"
tla missing $arch
tla star-merge $arch
tla missing $parth
...
You shell handles aliases quite well.
However, they can start to cause collisions, and it is a reasonable
thing. It is being worked on. Tom has some pretty grand plans. Something
about hats where your aliases try to make sense depending on what
project you are in, etc.
Both of that being said, aba & fai both have aliases. And if you setup
tla-bash-complete a lot of the typing is taken care of.
Also you might want to look into "aba merge"
You create a list of "friends" in the file {arch}/=partner-versions
And then "aba merge" will do a star-merge with each one until something
changes. Then it will stop, pop up the changelog, and basically be ready
for committing.
