mergeinfo question on sub-trees

A coworker of mine is wondering if the following merge tracking
scenario works as expected...

When a single revision of a repository includes changes to two
sub-directories, will a merge in a single subdirectory correctly
update that subdirectory’s merge-info, but leave the other unmodified?
 Further, will a subsequent merge in the parent correctly pull on the
changes in the other sub-directory?

  E.g. –

    1) http://repos/branches/branch1/sub-dir-1/foo.c is modified and commited
    2) http://repos/branches/branch1/sub-dir-2/bar.c is modified and commited
    3) In a working copy pointing to http://repos/trunk/sub-dir-1
perform the following command:
         # svn merge http://repos/branches/branch1/sub-dir-1/

 Q: Will the previous command correctly update all of the merge-info
properties in sub-dir-1?

  4) In another working copy pointing to http://repos/trunk perform
the following command:
        # svn merge http://repos/branches/branch1

 Q: Will command #4 merge the missing revisions for sub-dir-2 and
correctly update all the merge-info for the entire tree?

Regards,
Ryan Phillips
