Subj: 	Submitting files from STERLING into GOLD

Can someone give me a procedure for checking out a file from Sterling
and bmerging/submitting it into gold? The procedure I used did not work.

Here is what I did:

	1. Create a sandbox backed to agosminor
	2. Create a private branch on a file
	3. Resb to goldos
	4. Bmerge -r$NEW file

In step 4, bmerge did not show differences between Sterling and Gold.
It looks like a got a version from Gold.

Any ideas?

Rich, from your step 2 it's not clear if you did a bco and a bci: 	

        2. Create a private branch on a file  

however, bmerge requires that the file has been checked-in first with
your work.  You can do bdiff -r$NEW to see the changes, which should
show the differences between what you have in your sandbox and what
you'd get with the first rev that is found from the $NEW string.

Are you sure that this file has been submitted into gold at all yet,
i.e. that the goldos version has diverged with the agosminor version?
If not, then no diffs would be seen, and the file will get into goldos
the next time that goldos is "resb"d to agosminor.bl9; if gold can't
wait that long, then the file can be submitted as you're doing, but
no changes would be expected...
