Are you saying that if we commit this merge, it will delete the repository path 
SS from SS's parent-in-the-repository, and also delete the repository path 
SS@BASE from SS@BASE's parent-in-the-repository?  Well, I never would have 
guessed that!

OK, and thanks for the details; I'll study the rest on Monday.
