Potential Backports for 1.5

As we push for a 1.5 alpha release this Thursday
(http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2008-02/0457.shtml) just a friendly
reminder to anyone who committed to trunk since 1.5.x was branched
(r29081) to check if a backport is needed for your changes.

Looking at what hasn't been backported or nominated thus far, the
following jump out as likely candidates (you are all probably on these
already, just want to be sure nothing falls between the cracks):

r29374, 29382, 29397, 29417, 29420 (various): The merge the
mergeinfo-api-cleanup branch to trunk and subsequent follow-ups.

r29412, 29414, 29415 (glasser): Change some of the SVN-ACTION DAV
logging names to match the svnserve command set and follow-ups.

r29434, 29436, 29438 (kfogel): Issue 2986 'copy-on-update needs to use
loggy correctly' wrap up.

r29175, 29252 (kfogel): Fix issue #2992 'make svnadmin recover warier for FSFS'.

r29168 (cmpilato): Fix an RA session leak.

r29288, 29348 (hwright): Fix issue #2996: Catch improper argument to
diff against base revision. This fixes a couple of potential aborts
farther down the call stack (that sounds like a good thing :-)

r29388 (glasser): In the implementations of svn_fs_get_mergeinfo, make
sure that the
keys in the catalog are in the correct pool.

r29418 (glasser): Fix a potential hang in svnserve/ra_svn.

r29419 (glasser): Change the format of the revprops block sent in
svnserve for replay-range so that the discard-rest-of-edit-after-error
loop at the bottom of svn_ra_svn_drive_editor2 doesn't choke on them.
This incompatible change must be backported to 1.5 or reverted on
trunk.

-----

There are also a second group which I'm less able to judge, but seem
worth mentioning for consideration:

r29236 (hwright): Use an iterpool for temporary allocation in a loop
in svn_client_log4().

r29201: Allow the Ruby bindings work with SWIG 1.3.33.

r29167, 29169, 29170: Rev the svn_ra_get_uuid and
svn_ra_get_repos_root interfaces. Originally marked as new since 1.5,
then changed in 29170 with comment "Don't assume r29167 is getting
backported"...

r29421, 29422, 29423, 29425, 29380, 29246, 29249, 29439 (joe): A whole
slew of ra_neon changes.

r29393 (kfogel): Clarify how ra_dav's mergeinfo capability query
works. It's only a doc change, but seems related with the already
nominated changes for issue #3089?

r29428 (kameshj): Code refactor: Use 'svn_hash_diff' to diff between
mergeinfo hashes instead of custom logic.
