Yes, it probably should go in subversion-tools.  I don't think the
extra dependency on xsltproc is a problem - and if it's only one script
among many, it might end up as a Recommends anyway.

I've been pondering what to do with subversion-tools.  It's got almost
nothing in it currently, and I think we ought to ship it with a lot of
what upstream ships in 'contrib' - with a fat note describing how these
are 'contrib' and not really supported, meaning their UIs and even
their existence can change without notice.  One problem is different
implementations of the same tool - svnmerge.py and svnmerge.sh, for
example - they can't both be /usr/bin/svnmerge - so it will take some
research to determine just what should go in subversion-tools.

Thanks,
Peter
