RE: [TSVN] what happened to the default merge From URL

I agree, I never merge from trunk to trunk. But having the current URL up
gives me something to edit instead of typing it in from scratch. We have
over 25,000 files and hundreds of subdirectories and it's difficult to find
a past one even if it were there.

  From: C:\branches\v6.1.1\Java\src\com\appworx\agent\outputscan\
  To: C:\trunk\Java\src\com\appworx\agent\outputscan
