Log-Message of TortoiseSVN after merge contains too much commit messages

Hi,

when merging with TortoiseSVN 1.8.5 an auto-generated log-message can be selected in the commit dialog afterwards. Cool feature. But it contains too much messages:

I observed the following:
  * One creates a branch named let's say 'X'
  * Works on it with several commits on several days
  * Meanwhile others are committing on the trunk or in other branches

Now I merge branch 'X' to the trunk. In the merge dialog I leave the revision range empty and (Tortoise-)SVN selects automatically the revision range - let's say 1234-4321, which is from the first commit in the branch after creating it and the last commit on the branch. Still OK.
The merge itself is OK, but when I now select the auto-generated log-message in the commit dialog it contains the commit messages of (nearly?) all (!) revisions from 1234-4321. I would expect that this auto-generated log-message contains the commit messages of only those revisions of the range really committed on the branch, but it contains messages of commits in the trunk or other branches as well, e.g. message "xyz" of a commit on the trunk with revision 2143. Which is in the range but from a totally different location in the repository.

Too me this is a bug.

Regards
Torge
