[cciug] Merge Help!

Smart people, Help me!!

Here's the scoop:

I have to sub-branches off of main. I want to create a new sub-branch off
of main and merge these branches over to the new branch one at a time. The
first should be a trivial merge. The second may encounter conflicts.

Branches:
/main/dev1
/main/dev2
/main/dev_new

I created the new branch and attempted to merge /main/dev1 to /main/dev_new.
Unfortunately the results were not what I wished. I lost the changes made
on /main/dev1.

I used findmerge:

In a /main/dev_new view I executed the following:

cleartool findmerge file1 -nc -fversion /main/dev1/LATEST -merge

Does anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this? It's important for me
to preserve the branching scheme: I want branch "dev_new" to branch off of
main.

Much appreciated!

Thanks,
Dan.
