This is the expected behavior. If you change (or remove) the merge
info on '/a/b/c/d', you're implicitly changing the merge info for all
children of 'd'. If you want to change the merge info for *only* 'd',
you must update the merge info for its children (e.g. '/a/b/c/d/e') to
retain any previous value.
