Feature request: Progress during merge branches

Post by cdaniel » Thu Jul 01, 2004 10:33 am

The merge branches wizard is great overall! However, in a merge I just did, the Vault client sat, by all appearances doing nothing, for quite some time in the "Update local files..." state (the last step of the merge). There was no CPU activity to speak of, and little network activity as well. In this state, Vault wasn't even able to repaint the merge-wizard dialog. Eventually it completed and everything was merged correctly, but for several minutes I was concerned that it was actually stuck. Some kind of progress indicator, and a window that stays "live" and able to repaint itself would be a great addition.

Good point.

I'm fixing a round of merge branches bugs now, so I'll add this
one to my list.
