Merging Individual Blocks
If you do not want to merge entire revisions you can merge individual difference blocks or lines. Difference blocks are highlighted within each revision and may be insertions, deletions, changes, or conflicts.
The merging blocks functions are accessible from the Edit menu and the shortcut menu. The following outlines the commands you can use:
• Merge Block inserts the selected block or line into the merge result file in the same location as it displays in the revision it originated from.
• Merge Block Above inserts the selected block or line above the adjacent block in the merge result file.
• Merge Block Below inserts the selected block or line below the adjacent block in the merge result file.
In addition to these commands, in Visual Merge you can simply select a block and double-click it or drag it into the merge result file.
You must save the merge result file to complete the merging operation. For information on saving merge results, see
“Saving Merge Results”.
