Morning, Recently, when any user merges up from trunk to their topic branch, svn appears to do it directory by directory for immediate sub-directories of the branch root, so each sub-directory gets explicit mergeinfo.
[X:\XYZ.11650]svn merge http://svn.example.net/ABCD/Source/trunk --- Merging r38851 through r39538 into 'Automation': U Automation\TestingDashboard\TestingDashboard.sln ... --- Merging r38851 through r39541 into 'Tools': ... Up to around 6 months ago this would not have been noticed, however we have had so many problems with mergeinfo that there is now a hook that prevents mergeinfo going anywhere other than the "branch" roots. The hook is working fine, the problem is that svn is doing this, when there seems to be no apparent reason. I understand that this would happen if the user did not have read access to one of the sub-directories in the source tree, but this is not the case. I have compared a svn ls -R using the file protocol with the same using the http protocol, just to be sure, and there is no difference. It could also happen if the target wc was not at infinite depth, but that's not the case either, nor switched sub-dirs, or anything similar. There is no sub-tree mergeinfo on the trunk. What other problem could be causing this?
