BUG: Merge wizard changes selected revisions

Hi Folks,

The merge wizard changes the selected revisions between a dry run and the actual merge. For a merge I have selected a several revisions. The merge wizard displays the following revisions after selecting them using the log dialog:
3517,3497,3495,3492,3488

The gaps contain a colleagues revisions that I don't want to merge.

The dry run happily goes through the revisions, merges them and all is fine. At the top of the dry-run progress window, the following revisions are displayed:
3516-3517,3496-3497,3494-3495,3491-3492,3487-3488

I press OK to get back to the previous page and start the actual merge. Suddenly the merge goes over the following revisions:
3515-3517,3495-3497,3493-3495,3490-3492,3486-3488

which causes tons of conflicts, screws my WC and I have to start over again.

There is no hint that the revisions have been changed!!!

The bug is probably triggered, because I'm merging a lot of single revisions, but this should not happen.

If I press back to get back to the revision selection, the displayed revisions are correct. Then forward again and start the merge and all is fine. It's just confirming the dry run with OK and starting the merge immediately which triggers the bug.

Cheers
- Lübbe
