I hope that clarifies the merge tracking part.
You just described what merging is. Svn can do that too with svn merge. But, if I merge changesets from branch A to B selectively, skipping some along the way, can I later ask git to:

- list the changesets remaining in A that I haven't merged to B yet? - list the branches, from a given list, which have/haven't merged a given changeset?

Those are things svn can't do.

However I don't know what do you mean with 'changeset tracking'.

I didn't mean that 'changeset tracking' is different from 'merge tracking'.

Subversion dev Daniel Berlin was recently hired by Google, and according to his blog[i] one of his first duties is to implement merge tracking in svn.
