Replacing a versioned file with new version?

[Mario Techera]

Hello,

I would like to replace a versioned file with a new version from a non-versioned folder. The result
should be as if I've simply modified the original file so that the versioning on the original file is maintained.

How can I do this?

(hopefully I've explained myself correctly!)

Best regards from Bavaria,
Mario

Simply copy the new version into the working copy (overwriting the
current version) and then commit your change.

Hi,

just copy your new file over the old one and commit.

Open the replacement, select all, copy. Open the versioned file, select
all, paste. Commit. ?

If you want the versioned file to move/rename during the process, you
may need to add a move/rename step in there. I would suggest doing that
in 2 commits, one for the rename, one for the new content, just to make
following it a little bit easier.

Hope that is what you are asking,

That worked great! Thanks for the replies. I also took note of the re-name step.

Best regards,
Mario

Not really needed. Just copy the file in would be adequate.
