Kamesh, thanks for taking a stab at the single-file merge portion of
the problem. I actually have a similar patch already sitting in my
WC, but was trying to shake the rest of the bugs out of
directory/multi-file merge (the do_merge() function) before applying
the pattern to single-file merging. I sent a mail to Madan yesterday
describing two areas where help would be most useful
(svn_rangelist_intersect(), which needs to be called from do_merge(),
and fixing the failing tests in merge_tests.py, which are at least in
part due to lack of handling for our new "svn:mergeinfo" housekeeping
property).

A few comments about the patch inline below...

A svn_client_ctx_t * is already available via merge_b->ctx. I'm not
sure why we pass this in separately for do_merge() -- it looks like an
oversight (WRT to the baton data type), which I've fixed on trunk in
r20286, and integrated into the merge-tracking branch (using
svnmerge.py).

This block is duplicated in do_merge() -- should we stick it into a
macro?

In do_single_file_merge(), we call some other functions which take a
RA session, that we pass NULL into. Would it be possible to re-use
this RA session instead across those calls?

is_revert will be wrong here because range.start was already modified
-- you copied the bad example I committed incrementally while trying
to handle the logic for reverts. See r20280 and r20285.

You appear to be missing a loop around the merging of the revision
ranges and cleanup.
