RE: Surprising merge results - Mergeinfo Elision?

If the effective mergeinfo is the same with or without these property
values, then you should commit the changes. Otherwise the old mergeinfo
for those files will be reinstated and it will supersede the inherited
mergeinfo.

If for some reason the effective mergeinfo is NOT the same with or
without these properties, then you have a pretty serious bug and I would
not commit anything until you understand what is going on.

If you could post
(a) the file's or directories merge info from before the merge
(b) the parent's merge info from before the merge
(c) the parent's merge info after the merge
(d) what you merged

Perhaps we could comment on whether this elision was done correctly or
not.
