I wasn't suggesting that the sandbox copy not receive the merged
changes. I think it should. How could you keep your sandbox from
getting the changes if you desired to commit your changes? Like I said,
maybe it should inform of the merge. Maybe it should just be a setting
that can determine how to deal with the situation? That way, people
that like the way it works currently can have that, but others, such as
myself, can allow the tool to help them out. I think 99% of the time
what is going to take place is that the person will run svn merge, it
will succeed, and then the person will commit the changes. Why not have
a way to have this happen automatically?
