Hi,

Some time ago, in a separate email thread I was asked to try 1.10 client. I have been using it since, and today it showed an error during merge:

Checking r12300... done

Using svn compiled from r1763039.

What happened: while 'svn merge' was waiting for response, I decided to find out if I had any local changes in the offending directory. In a separate shell, I ran 'svn log --stop-on-copy <dir>' and then 'svn diff -c REV <dir>', where REV is the revision reported by 'svn log' on that directory. After that, I accepted incoming deletion, but the client aborted the merge - see above.

On a separate note, the only revision reported on that directory by 'svn log' was a previous merge from ^/trunk. I am not sure how it made the ^/mybranch/<dir> different from ^/trunk/<dir> - IMO, they should've been identical. It would be helpful if 'svn merge' offered a verbose view on what it deemed different.

I just found what made it consider this directory different: it had build artifacts (*.o, *.d, etc) in that directory - once I ran 'make clean' prior to merge, the merge proceeded smoothly. Does the client consider unversioned files when comparing the directories?

Regards,
Alexedy.
