I'm working in a repository where there is a trunk and a branches directory containing a handful of separate copies of what is now the trunk.

I.e.,

project/
  trunk
  branches/
    branch1
    branch2
    ...
    branchn

I'm picking up where  a previous maintainer left off, and I'm noticing something unsusual. If I run the following from trunk:

svnmerge.py avail -S branches/branchx --diff

there is quite a bit of output, including helpful log messages. What's odd is that it seems like the changes have actually been committed to the trunk. I.e., if I look at a file that svnmerge.py is identifying as different in trunk and compare it to the file in branches/branchx using the filesystem diff, there is often no difference (and when there is, it is because of recognizable changes that have been merged from a different branch).

The question is: what do I do with these available changes? Block them? Go ahead and merge them?
