everything is described in the Quartus Handbook in the 'Incremental Compile'
section;
if you have a particular problem - describe what you are doing and
the nature of the problem;
I have little practice at this point but as far as I remember
merging partitions is an automatic process and you do not have
to start it manually, a little complicated task could be
preparing/exporting/importing subdesigns into one top-level;

Hi j_andr, & Craftor:

Thanks for your answer. I am just trying. At the early beginning, my question
may be more like 'Do I need to create a project for all partitions?'. I think the
answer is yes. And after compiled, it needs an exporting as a design partition
to generate a binary .qxp file for all. Then of course, I need to create a top-level
project, then import all portitions and do compilation for the integration. This is
what I've known and what I guess so far. May be later on. I will have more
specific questions. Thanks for all your help!

well, the answer is: - as usual - it depends ;);
you can have one project and want to put its pieces to partitions
to speed up recompile process [you recompile only changed unit,
not full design], in this case the answer is: no, you do not have
to create a project for all partitions;
but you can divide the project to smaller pieces to allow
a group of people work on it in parallel - in such case
everyone will set up his own project and after debugging
and optimizing each part, the sub-results have to be exported and
merged inside the top level;
