We have a basic development effort going on a product, let’s say it’s at Version 4. At milestones during development, I version the trunk as we go 4_0_1, 4_0_2, etc., etc.

Now, I want to do some R&D style development, so I want to Branch the project.

In CVS Perspective, I Rt. Click and select “Add To Branch List” I name the branch, and it gets created under the “Branches” tree node.

If I open that branch however, there is no actual code in it, jus tthe project structure.

What am I doing wrong?

Mike I’ve asked someone with more experience than I about this in the office to have a look at your post.

Mike,

To create your branch, right click on the project in the Package Explorer view and select Team > Branch.. then give it a name and remember to select ‘Begin working in the new branch’. That will creat a branch that is identical to the trunk you’re branching from.
