Unintended time logging by commiting recent messages after merge

Added by Jan Harms about 11 years ago

We are using allways branch methodology and use the "refs/fixes #ticket @h/mm" syntax in the commit messages.
When a developer get the latest changes from trunk and merges them into his branch and commits those tortoisesvn provides this handy "recent messages" feature where it puts all the commit messages that you are commiting to your branch from the merge.
These commit messages can contain said references to tickets and time logging. This creates time logging entries for each commit that you are merging into your baseline.

This behavior is technically correct and works as expected but it is quite unpractical.

Has anyone else encountered this and has a solution? (Except not using this tortoisesvn feature.)

Thank you
