Not just waste of space. Make sure to read:
http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/09/25/svn-strikes-back-a-serious-vulnerability-found/
(I don't think they should have used the word "vulnerability" in their
title -- they used it to create hype.)

My recommendation is to use 'svn export' and a tool like rsync instead.

Can you be more specific, please?
What merge command did you run? What mergeinfo on which path did
change in what way and what did you expect to see instead?
Output of 'svn diff' and 'svn status' would help. You can change
URLs and path names if you like, but keep any other information.
