As expected, there was something wrong in my replay editor, it did not copy directory properties upon copies. The merge was actually reported as an "add_directory()" with a copyfrom record. Looking at svnsync.c code actually helped me compare what I was doing with what should be done. Thanks for suggesting the svnsync test. -- Patrick Mézard
