Piston 1.3.0 introduced the switch subcommand, but it did not do one important thing: it did not remember what new repository root we are reading from. Version 1.3.1 corrects that.
The CHANGELOG says:
2007-03-09 1.3.1
- piston switch would fail if the branch from which we are reading had been
deleted. - piston switch had a major bug. It did not update the piston:root property
to remember the new repository root. Reported and fixed by Graeme
Mathieson. - piston switch errors out early if not provided with the right arguments.
Thanks to Graeme Mathieson for the info and patch. - New internal command parser. No visible external changes.
Piston is a utility that eases vendor branch management. This is similar to svn:externals, except you have a local copy of the files, which you can modify at will. As long as the changes are mergeable, you should have no problems.
Download using the usual command:
1 $ sudo gem install --include-dependencies piston
