There are several merge tracking related groups in STATUS right now.
It's probably too much to expect them all to be reviewed, but if
anyone wants looks at just one, here are (IMHO) the highest to lowest
priority:

 * r34091, r34094, r34244, r34256, r34306
   Various svn merge --reintegrate improvements. Even if you hate
   reintegrate, wouldn't it be nice if it was actually usable
   some of the time?

 * r34385, r34393
   Fix broken merge when the merge target's natural history includes
   resurrections. Merges that don't error out are a good thing.

 * r34432, r34669
   Follow-up to r32975, which is already backported and had a bug, see
   http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=dev&msgNo=145757.
   Fixing regressions is also good.

 * r34560, r34562
   Fix a bug which occurs when a merge adds a subtree as an immediate child
   of the merge target when the merge target has non-inheritable mergeinfo
   and is also the current working directory. If all these planets align
   properly then invalid mergeinfo is created on the added subtree.
   Ok, this is probably quite rare, but it is a bug.

 * r34547
   Fix issue #3323 'Mergeinfo deleted by a merge should disappear'
   Also fairly rare, but not dire.

 * r30257, r33024, r33026
   Don't try to filter natural history from added mergeinfo during
   reverse merges. It was suggested in IRC that this should be
   de-nominated...I won't go that far, but it makes the bottom of
   this list.
