svn merge is always a 3-way merge. You specify a source and a target, and
the diff between those two are applied to the working copy (the third).

We just (hope to) have nice defaults for all three so that you don't always
have to specify them. For example, the WC path defaults to "." The source
defaults to when the target first came into existence (e.g. the branch was
created).
