SVN server side does NOT do any merge operation. Merge happens on the
client side when working copy as diverged from server copy. You can
call ANY process you want to carry ANY type of intelligent merge, this
is NOT svn job. As a convenience, svn client is shipped with the most
common diff/patch line-by-line merging mechanism, which can not handle
this case. You'll have to find some dedicated xml merging tools, or
write your own.
