Hi Mark,

Thanks for the info. It might be worth to update the red-bean doc in the section where it describes that you can continually perform reintegration merges.

"Now that your branch is merged to trunk, you have a couple of options. You can keep working on your branch, repeating the whole process of occasionally syncing with the trunk and eventually using --reintegrate to merge it back again. Or, if you're really done with the branch, you can destroy your working copy of it and then remove it from the repository."

Regards

Colm A

Colm,

I finally got that blog post published.

http://blogs.open.collab.net/svn/2008/07/subversion-merg.html

It explains some of the issues with merge and reintegrate.  Your issue
is covered near the end under the Branch Management section.  In your
reproduction, Subversion is behaving as expected.  You would probably
want to handle this situation by deleting branches after they are
reintegrated and then create them again if necessary.

Thanks

Mark
