Thank you very much for that helping link! This is exactly the type of background information I've been looking for.
With the help of your linked article, if found out that on the root directory a mergeinfo was set. I tried to removed the existing property as workaround on both trunk & branch. Unfortunately I still receive explicit entries mergeinfo entries following this scheme on totally unrelated paths (no relevant commit since branch-off): Added: svn:mergeinfo Merged /branches/1.1.x/tools/releasenotes:r3101-3122* Added: svn:mergeinfo Merged /branches/1.1.x/tools/releasenotes/axis-jaxrpc-1.3.jar:r3101-3122 Any hint on where those do origin from? Are those issues adressed by svn 1.7.x? The mentioned articel did not provide any explanation pattern for me.

But it's too early to tell how that will work out. Svn 1.7 is still at least a couple of months away... -- Johan
