Something else occurred to me. I guess my use case is more like this:

Svn update -> rev. 1000
Svn merge from branch
Go to TSvn commit window, and revert all the prop changes for subtree mergeinfo (this can be over a hundred at this point)
Svn commit: failure
Svn update -> rev. 1000
Svn commit: succeed

Can the revert step on the prop changes cause mixed revisions somehow? You'd think it should only revert back to the same working BASE version as the rest of my WC (rev. 1000 above) but I wonder if something is going wrong here.
