You are absolutely in the same thought as me. The definition of how close differs across tools. diff3 has chosen 2 lines and beyond compare has chosen 1. The problem is that the SVN has chosen 0.
Why I flag this as an issue because, the tool should not fail if we merge the same patch multiple times. Hope you can appreciate that this is a branch integration issue. Same change taken to two different branches comes back to the main branch twice.
The problem I faced is in a different scenario. We maintain many patches for a software. Each patch corresponds to a feature. And more than 2 patches can have the same code changes (corresponding to sub-features). When I try to merge all the patches to the software, the result is successful, but there are duplicated lines.
