Most likely merge has touched the svn:mergeinfo property on those
files. Property changes do not distinguish themselves in the
Synchronize view nor do they show in the Compare UI. I believe the
commit dialog now adds a decorator for them though.
When you do a merge any files that have mergeinfo will have that
mergeinfo updated to reflect that the revision has been merged. No
one likes it. Changes are coming which will reduce the situations
where files have this mergeinfo property, but those that do will
continue to be updated.
If you have done all of your merging on the roots of your project
tree, then it is likely safe to just remove the svn:mergeinfo property
from these files. You will need to do it in your trunk and branches.
