Re: empty parent infinite child

Well, yes. The "empty" depth on the parent means, for example, that if
another working copy creates and commits a new child, 'svn up' won't
pull it.

Note the reverse problem can also happen: a depth=immediates parent
and a depth=exclude child.

So, yes, it's by design. Maybe we could change the output, but at 2am
I don't have ideas for how we might do that :)
