No, we don't use path-based authorization. All developers (accounts) have the same permissions (even the merge user account). Regarding the mergeinfo questions: the branch entry is "<path-to-trunk>/9746-10001,10003-10205. The missing Rev 10002 was exactly the one that couldn't be merged due to the errors reported earlier. We merged the changes according to the description given here: http://blog.red-bean.com/sussman/?p=92

I'm trying to figure out where your problem is coming from, and so far, it sounds like one or more of your developers are doing merges in a way that prevents mergeinfo from being recorded correctly, for whatever reason. Another question: Do you use path-based authorisation? Do the accounts involved in the merges all have the same set of permissions, or are there differences that might explain your problems? Stefan
