I have 2 separate projects that I want to merge into one, preferably using eclipse but I am open to other suggestions.
Scenario:
1)Project A is created by developer A
2)Project B is created by developer B
3)Both projects are completely independent of themselves at development
4)Project A needs to use the functionality of Project B to become more efficient
5)Developer A needs to merge the code from project B into Project A (aware there is going to have to be some changes made)
Is this possible short of cutting and pasting?
I know I can merge into existing work spaces but I need it in the same code base.
(If this is not the right forum to ask in please let me know).
Create parent project with it. Then make both A and B its submodules. Perhaps you will find that some code from both should be moved into separate module (name it "common" for example) to clean up dependencies...
I presume Maven will work of the two parts created are disparate. If they are not disparate, then a Subversion repository (or similar) allows different people to work on overlapping modules.
