It does and that's not quite the problem for me. However what's possible
to do with SVN are merges like these:
merge A/B/somefile into A
absolutely valid operation, but nothing we use here. In cases this is
done here in our company it's always an incorrect merge (because someone
chose the wrong destination folder.
So we want to prevent issues like these, because they can easily result
in polluting the mergeinfo records.
I was under the impression that subversion now automatically takes subtree
mergeinfo into account:

Subject: preventing recording misaligned mergeinfos
Hi,
I'm currently checking-out ways to prevent the creation of misaligned
mergeinfos in SVN. My current solution would be to add a pre-commit hook to
prevent any mergeinfo records on any but the top-most node (aka:
trunk or a branch). While this would prevent most cases which let to misaligned
mergeinfos, it's certainly not exactly what I want/need.
Does anybody have an idea for a better/more precise solution/approach?
