Ok, but that default style is really tough on the eyes when dealing
with subtrees and mergeinfo. Run 'svn pg svn:mergeinfo -R' on the
root of the 1.5.x branch to see what I mean. In contrast run 'svn pg
svn:mergeinfo -vR'. The latter is much more useful when you want to
quickly understand what subtrees have mergeinfo; it's not perfect, but
at least it doesn't induce a migraine :-)
Hmmm, this makes me think that a --quiet option to svn pg might be nice too:
C:\SVN\src-branch-1.5.x>svn pg svn:mergeinfo -Rvq
Property svn:mergeinfo set on '.': svn:mergeinfo
Property svn:mergeinfo set on 'notes\tree-conflicts\scratch-pad.txt'

But I digress...
