Patent number: 9940108Abstract: A system and method for merging changed elements in a software development environment is provided, in which the software development environment is provided with a set of at least one defect, comprising at least one changed element, associated with a software project that comprises a plurality of elements, the software project comprising a plurality of elements. The environment first obtains a list of changed elements in a defect record, for example from a defect database, and for each changed element in the list, attempts an automated merge of the changed element with a corresponding target. If any attempt fails, the environment may re-attempt the merge for any failed attempt, and may invoke a user interface for resolving the merge manually.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2013Date of Patent: April 10, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: David John Martineau

Patent number: 9304764Abstract: A system and method for selectively operating on changed elements, for example merging, in a software development environment are provided. A software project comprising one or more version-controlled software development objects, or elements, is associated with one or more defects recording changed elements in the software development environment. The system and method provide for automated merging of changed elements associated with defects tagged for forward merging into the software project, and association or tracking actions for changed elements associated with defects that are tagged as not to be merged. The process of automated merging is carried out using a master work list listing work items representing changed elements ordered chronologically.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2012Date of Patent: April 5, 2016Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: David John Martineau
