No, with certain operations you need to start giving entire paths if and
only if you're not operating on the repo as a whole.
If you loose when using svn as client, then you might wanna have a
look at svk which already has star-merge capabilities. Or just
don't merg until svn 1.3 is out (which will have it)

Which is an extremely rare task compared to doing things like diffs and
branch merges...

(or wait for the ebuild)
play a bit around, feel it, and report your experiences. when having problems
(like you seem to *always* complain) report in *detail*.
Finally, just don't use svn if you feel that uncomfortable with it. No one
said that cvs will go away. I'm tired of reading your 'svn is hard to merge
because it *is* hard to merge' posts :(
Sorry, but this is how it comes over.
