Synchronize my CVS Eclipse branch with a manager

Question

I am working on a "branch" in Eclipse.

Some changes have been made to the "HEAD" branch.

How can I easily update a branch so that it can be synchronized with HEAD?

thanks

PS:

What I did, but I'm not sure if this is the best way:

• I made changes to the branch I'm working on
• Right click> Switch to another branch or version ...> Head (it puts HEAD instead of my branch)
• Right click> Merge ... (Then I choose where I merge the HEAD, and here I select my branch).
• Finally, I: Right-click> Switch to another branch or version ...> My branch and here I get my branch

Is there a cleaner way to do this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

It should be "right click" → "update".

Answer 2

The best way to do this is to right-click on the project in the branch and select Team-> Merge. Combine the changes made in HEAD using a branch using the Tagging concept.
