Managing branches with svnmerge is nice and friendly. Certainly much

If you use svnmerge on your branch, and then integrate the branch to
mainline with "svn merge" (as opposed to applying a patch), then
please Please PLEASE remove all of the "svn:mergeinfo" properties that
get brought in before you do the commit. Failure to do so will cause
all sorts of problems the next time someone tries to merge from trunk
out to a branch.
I've just removed all of the errant properties from trunk.
