| |
| <li><strong>Never preview and use CVS text markup to indicate conflicts</strong>: |
| <br>All non-conflicting resources are updated automatically and conflicts are dealt with by adding the conflicting code to the file |
| and using CVS text markup to delineate the boundaries of the conflict. You must then go through each file that had a conflict, look |
| for the markup, and manually merge the contents.</li> |
