Re: Why does merge skip files?!?

Nevermind. I still don't know why svn was unhappy, but the following
seems to have appeased it:

gre7g@7[4732]$ rm -rf trunk; svn update
A trunk
A trunk/test1

<snipped>

Updated to revision 97.
gre7g@7[4732]$ svn merge -r32:HEAD branches/dummy trunk
A trunk/test1/test1
A trunk/test1/test1.c

<snipped>

So I guess if anyone encounters this problem, try reloading your tree
from scratch. It seems to clean SOMETHING up that svn update
doesn't.
