Looking at your ouput it doesn't seem you got any conflicts? Or is it
simply that when you are configured to use an external diff tool that
there is no command line evidence of interactively resolved conflicts?
I get three conflicts when doing the same merge:
Conflict discovered in 'notes/tree-conflicts/design-overview.txt'.
Conflict discovered in 'subversion/tests/cmdline/merge_tests.py'.
Conflict discovered in 'subversion/libsvn_auth_kwallet/kwallet.cpp'.

I'd expect 'G' only when merging (cleanly) into a path with local mods
and 'U' otherwise, no?

Heh, well it was worth a try to tempt you to look deeply into it :-)
While on a run this weekend I realized a simple way to replicate the
problem you saw on the tree-conflicts branch using just a simple greek
tree. I added merge_tests.py 104 in r32522 (it was embarassingly
simple in hindsight). I feel confident now that this fix is correct
and committed it in r32523.
