Comment (by barry.wardell):
Yes, as I said, actually doing the merge is straightforward. It's not even necessary that they share a single ancestor.
The problem is you would then have a thornlist which is not consistent with the repository layout. For example, you would have two directories: arrangements/AEIThorns/PunctureTracker and arrangements/EinsteinAnalysis/PunctureTracker. We could work around this by updating the thornlists in all of the release branches.
Replying to [comment:6 rhaas]:
Basically we need to be able to have something like this
{{{ !TARGET = $ARR !TYPE = git !URL = https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/aeithorns.git !REPO_PATH= $2 !REPO_BRANCH = ET_2015_05 !CHECKOUT = AEIThorns/PunctureTracker AEIThorns/Trigger }}}
in a thorn list (ie. a single branch that contains the files from all
thorns).
Are you suggesting that we have another arrangement repository for AEIThorns (in addition to moving the thorns to other arrangements)?
