Heh, the merge syntax (in optimized form) is almost identical to diff
syntax. (It's really just a special kind of 'svn diff' anyway.) You
helped design the syntax, Karl, so I'm not surprised that it came out
that way.

Since we've decided to not use 'svn rollback', I suggest that people
get familiar with 'svn help merge'. :-)
