[Firebird-docs] Issue DOC-129 resolved.

[Norman D. <No...@du...>]

Morning All,

it's currently 10:25 UK time. My emails to the list seem to be taking a 
few days to get to the docs list at the moment, so I've no idea if or 
when you will see this!


I've updated the gfix manual to resolve issue DOC-129 whereby the sweep 
interval was incorrectly defined.

I've raised a pull request from my specially created branch DOC-129 for 
the resolution.

While I am able to merge this fix into master, I cannot merge it into 
B_release though. I get the impression that B_Release either didn't come 
across correctly, or is too far out of date from Master as attempting to 
merge my DOC-129 branch into B_release gives lots of conflict errors.

$git merge DOC-129

Removing ChangeLog
Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.


Git status gives screens and screens of new files to be added, and 9 
modified files, from the 10 files listed above, to have their conflicts 
fixed.

Listed above is fbutils_gfix.xml but it isn't listed in the git status 
output as a conflicting file. Oh joy!  It also doesn't have any conflict 
markers.

$git merge --abort cleaned up the mess from the merge.



The same happens if I experiment with merging master into B_Release (in 
my local copy of my fork - so no damage done!) Another --abort cleaned 
up there too.

Has anyone else been able to merge new documents or changes into B_Release?


Cheers,
Norm.
