TortoiseSVN 1.8 client doesn

I've been using TSVN for at least 5 years, various versions going back to before 1.6. When working with LabVIEW files, most of which are binary, TSVN seemed to "know" this and never did a "merge" of the files when doing an update.

I just built a new PC, and downloaded TSVN 1.8.2 (I'd previously been using 1.7.13). My first update, TSVN reported that it had done merges!!

I've checked, and my previous installs had no special code to tell TSVN that LabVIEW files were binary (the Config file was never directly edited). I'm very nervous about possibly corrupting my LabVIEW work -- any suggestions on how to proceed? Any hints why 1.8 sees the LabVIEW files as "merge-able" where earlier versions of TSVN did not? Is this a Bug or a Feature, and how should we deal with it?

I'll attach a simple "Hello, World" LabVIEW source file as a demo.
