Here is a simple question I still do not understand the answer to.

I am sitting in a trunk WC. I run this command:

svn merge url://feature-branch

Why do I need to specify --reintegrate? Why can't we just see that
feature-branch meets our criteria for using --reintegrate and then do
it. And it it does not, allow the work Kamesh is doing to come into
play?
