I work on a branch from a trunk. Before merging it back to the trunk, I update the branch. After resolving the update-conflicts, the branch is merged with the trunk.
Do you know if conflicts occur during merge, even after resolving the update-conflicts?

I have 3 branches (Feature branch (a), Feature branch(b) and develop branch) .
Aim is to merge both feature branches with their latest changes in the develop branch .
Sequence of events :
Merged feature branch (a) into develop
Merge feature branch (b) into develop
Updated a file (xyz) by removing a field and did some other files updation (addition) as well in branch (a)
Raised a merge request to merge updated feature branch (a) into develop .
Issue :
Changes of file (xyz) is not visible in the changes tab on the git UI
It not even visible while merging conflicts from the UI
My Project structure is like this,
Trunk/X/
Trunk/K/
Trunk/X/Y
Trunk/X/Z
Trunk/X/Y/A
Trunk/X/Z/B
I created the branch with particular X/Z/B folder.
My Branch structure
X
X/Z
X/Z/B
I have made some changes in the branch and committed to the branch. Now due to some reason, i need full project(Trunk) in the same branch. Please understand that there is some difference in code in my branch and i want to retain it. How can i do that?
As I understand you want trunk of particular revision in branch X.
For that you can create new branch of all trunk from a revision number(which is used for branch X creation) & merge branch X to newly created branch.
You will get all your code in one branch.

The Scenario
I want to rollback a changeset.
The Problem
When I perform Rollback Entire Changeset from my $/SAM/Main branch using the VS2012 IDE, the Resolve Conflicts tab displays, and ALL of the files I'm trying to rollback have the following message associated with them:
The item being rolled back has changed in a later version
Changes being rolled back: 54460~54460 Your workspace version is: 54460
You have a pending change on the item
At this point, the only option available to me in the Resolve Conflicts tab is an Undo Rollback button.
Things to Note
CS54460 was created using the following command line:
merge $/SAM/Dev $/SAM/Main /discard /recursive /version:C54426~C54426
CS54460, when viewing the Changeset Details, performs a [merge, branch, delete] on ALL the files.
Why I Need to Do This
I need to do this, because I need to merge CS54426 from the $/SAM/Dev branch up to the $/SAM/Main branch.
Don't use rollback, just do it manually:
get the version you want to roll back to
back up the changed files
check out the changed files. If you're lucky the old code will be preserved but the checkout may force you back to the newest version.
so if necessary copy the backups over the master source files again
test and check in
My problem was solved by using the following command:
merge $/SAM/Dev $/SAM/Main /recursive **/force** /version:C54426~C54426
This forced the changeset I needed in $/SAM/Dev to disregard the "Keep Yours" changeset in $/SAM/Main, thus merging the code I needed up to the $/SAM/Main branch.
I was getting the error "TF203051: Cannot rollback item XYZ because the workspace version of the item is at or older than the version to which you are trying to rollback to. Update the version in your workspace to a newer version than the version to which you are trying to rollback to and then retry your operation." when attempting to roll back to a specific version in the history in VS2017.
The problem was that file XYZ, one of the files was included in multiple changesets, a second one was more recent than the one I was trying to roll back.
Luckily I needed to roll back that too. So the solution was to roll back both versions at the same time by selecting them together in the history view of Source Control Explorer.
I have a problem in pulling item from my repository.
I commit with vcs my changes, then pull the modified items and then I would like to push my changes. The problem is that when I pulled the first time, android studio notified that 2 items were changed; then I've tried to push, and it told me that the push of current branch was rejected and that remotes changes need to be merged. I then chose merge, but an error in merging appeared and it couldn't push anything ("fatal:You have not concluded your merge(MERGE_HEAD exists)").
I've tried several times to pull again and it pulls always the same 2 items (when, after the first time, it had to tell me that no items were pulled since I've already pulled them).
What can I do?
I am sure that you do not need the information now but I'll respond because it is here -
From what I can see, when you first pulled the changes there were merge conflicts (that is, the merge was not completed).
So, when you pull again without resolving the conflicts the same error will show up again and again.
You will have to abort the merge using I ran into a merge conflict. How can I abort the merge? and then perform the merge again(once the merge is completed you can continue with the other pull operations).
I am trying to integrate a change list from one branch of code to another branch.For this I do
1)p4 integ old_branch#cl,cl new_branch
2)p4 resolve -am
3)p4 change.
Now when I am doing the last part(p4 change ) I see this error :-
The document “tmp.BLAH BLAH” could not be opened. You don’t have
permission.
Has anyone seen this before and can help me correct this?I do have the config file under the branch's root
I was using P4V with Perforce when I had to use it. Drastically helped me with merges considering P4 is not quite like using SVN or Git.
Also I think that if the file can be removed from your filesystem you can revert to the latest from the repository if in fact it is a file from the repository. Then you can retry your merge.
I know in other merge programs the tmp files are generated during the conflict resolution process so you may be facing a similar issue.
