John,

I don't understand exactly what was going on, but I suspect there may 
have been two or more problems--especially since you seem to have run 
into the same error message that I was getting.

One problem, I think, is that I was trying to run svnmerge from a 
subdirectory instead of from the root of my checkout.  I simply did not 
notice that I was in the wrong directory until I had thrashed around for 
a while.

There may be, or have been, a larger problem as well--maybe caused by 
me, maybe not.  In any case, to get things working, I reran

svnmerge init 
https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/v0_98_5_maint

but it looks like I was still in the wrong directory when I did that, so 
I don't know if it had any useful effect.

After getting into the right directory, some combination of svn up and 
svnmerge merge seemed to get everything straightened out, with a little 
editing to resolve conflicts along the way.

That was last night, in the misty past.  Now it looks like I am back 
with the original problem I started with last night, and which you also 
reported:

efir...@manini:~/programs/py/mpl/mpl_trunk$ svnmerge avail 
/branches/v0_98_5_maint
svnmerge: "/branches/v0_98_5_maint" is not a subversion working directory

So, I'm baffled again.  It is as if Jae-Joon's commit since mine of last 
night, and my corresponding "svn up" this morning, wiped out the 
svnmerge tracking info.

I suspect a brief wave of Mike's magic wand tomorrow morning will clear 
away the fog.

Eric
