Yes and no. I still have the patch to do so, but I wanted to commit this simple version first in any case, as it is considerably easier to back-port. The interesting thing is that this code is only executed on a partial dump, where start revision is greater than 1, and only in order to be able to emit other warnings. It's not even executed at all during 'verify'. There is still merit in just adding a warning here, but it could almost be seen as misleading to warn in some cases yet fail to warn during full dumps and during verify. It seems to me it would be much better to parse the mergeinfo and warn if it's bad in all dumps and especially also during 'verify'. What do you think? - Julian
