I did some reading and the Show log from the merge dialog colors the already
merged revisions grey, which half the solution.
Additionally I have one question:
 - what does the blue color of some revision mean? I did not find this in the help file
(I use v1.6.16)

Also I noticed in our project, that some revisions are already merged, but not marked as such:
 - the changes are present in the brach (merge target)
 - svn:mergeinfo (on branch) does not have that revision number listed
 - trying to merge this revision just adds the rev number to svn:info

So my other question is: How to find all such cases (merged, but not marked as such)?
I seems this happened when a subfolder was merged, so the parent folder has no recording
of that in its svn:mergeinfo property.

Is there a way to detect, that a certain change involved just some subfolders (or files)
and it was merged on the subfolder level? So that change would be colored grey in the
merge/show log dialog invoked on the parent folder.

David
