A little more information: It seems that the property change is actually the removal of property svn:mergeinfo.

Today I created a new branch from my trunk and made some changes to the branch. I want to merge those changes back to the trunk. The trunk has not been changed since creating the branch. First I did a merge from trunk to branch, expecting nothing to merge, but one file did change: C:\>svn status X <snip>\dsp_include Performing status on external item at '<snip>\dsp_include': C:\>svn merge ^^/trunk --- Recording mergeinfo for merge of r5824 through r5827 into '.': U . --- Eliding mergeinfo from '<snip>\StarCoMPLTE.h': U <snip>\StarCoMPLTE.h C:\SVNProj\zodiac\branches\TRY_NECA_SBM_16July2014>svn status M . X <snip>\dsp_include M <snip>\StarCoMPLTE.h The change to StarCoMPLTE.h is to properties only but I don't why the properties have changed since nothing changed on the trunk. Is this a bug? How should I handle this please?
