I have an existing project, with a module:
ans-site ans/site
We now have a need to share some code between two different projects. I
created a new module:
ui-gen ans/ui-gen
And modified the other module definition to include it via an ampermod:
ans-site ans/site &ui-gen
Now I have a problem, though. If I check out the HEAD default branch of
ans-site, I *do* get the ui-gen subdirectory where it should be. If,
however, I check out a branch which already existed when I modified the
CVSROOT/modules file, it doesn't pick up the ui-gen directory. Is this a
bug? Is it the desired behavior? Note that the cvs checkout output
mentions descending into the ui-gen module -- it just doesn't actually pick
up any of the files there.
Note: we do most of our development on branches -- and we almost never use
the default HEAD branch, but instead have our own "Release" branch which we
fork off and merge back into.
How can I get an existing branch (like 'Release'), to know about the new
ampermod?
Thanks,
