Creating WordPress Themes with Blueprint and Sandbox

“you have to change the header.php file as shown in Michael’s tutorial, so you have to tell SVN not to update the header.php file”

In fact, svn *merges* your edits to header.php i.e. you still keep them after an “svn up” or “svn sw”. The edits in Michael’s tutorial simply add to the file, there’s no substitution or deletion in this case. SVN determines when its safe to merge your edits and when a conflict requires your attention.

Keep an eye on the initial capitals in the svn output: Updated, merGed, Conflict.
