Hi all!

The new "automatic merge" feature in subversion 1.8 look promising, but in our 
case prevents merging the trunk into a branch since subversion incorrectly 
interprets this operation as a reintegration merge and complains about missing 
revisions which should have been merged first. I can force the merge by 
explicitly selecting the range of revisions not yet merged, but this is exactly 
what merge tracking should do for me. So I have two questions:
*) Is it possible to override subversion's decision on the merge type (i.e., 
force a sync merge)?

*) What could be the source of confusion which leads to the incorrect merge 
classification? Maybe some complex and/or broken svn:mergeinfo property?

        Thanks & kind regards,
                Markus
