Nicely done!

That comment's actually pretty confusing: neither of the limit nor
include_merged_revisions options are considered optional in the
protocol, so the format we're using is entirely correct.

I realise you didn't update libsvn_ra_svn/protocol originally to
document the extract include_merged_revisions option - could you do that
as well? (And could you include some text that explains what limit
should be set to to indicate 'unlimited'? We really _should_ have made
it optional, but too late for that now...).

Malcolm
