Nope, there's no merge tracking. After running 'svn merge', the
client has no idea where the edits in your working copy came from.
It doesn't know whether they're the result of a merge command, or
whether you hand-edited everything yourself. So when the server
receives those edits, it's still impossible to know where the changes
came from.
