Maybe the documentation should be updated, because the --revprop arguement
seems to promise this functionality.

I'm not getting any error messages. Like I described in my initial post when
performing a merge, then the merge modifies the mergeinfo property of
unrelated files. This behavior causes some headache because it clutters the
view of what actually was modified with a merge.

It seems that when a file have gotten the mergeinfo property, then it is
constantly updated when doing merges. I was thinking that removing the
mergeinfo property from these files, then I could get rid of this behavior.
