"svn merge" error output

svn diff gives a useful error message when a path doesn't exist:

> svn diff https://zewt.org/svn/vendor https://zewt.org/svn/vendor/foo
svn: 'https://zewt.org/svn/vendor/foo' was not found in the repository at revision 40

However:

> svn merge --dry-run https://zewt.org/svn/vendor https://zewt.org/svn/vendor/foo .

svn: REPORT request failed on '/svn/!svn/vcc/default'
svn:
Invalid editor anchoring; at least one of the input paths is not a
directory and there was no source entry

It took me a little while to figure out that I'd simply forgotton to commit
an earlier svn cp.
