consolidating mergeinfos

Hi,

I've been checking on if it's somehow reasonable for us to consolidate
mergeinfos which have been built-up over the past 3-4 years in our
repository. After checking on several papers/scripts/posts on the net,
I've found this script which seemed to be a promising candidate at first:
https://github.com/ymartin59/svn-clean-mergeinfo

After reviewing the code I however see that (despite the really slow
performance of the script --- in our case running the script on the
entire repository would take approximately 2-3 years), I think the
script is not handling a few special cases correctly. Especially
non-inheritable mergeinfos seem to be not taken into account correctly,
but completely ignored.

Can someone confirm that? Does anybody know of a better way to
consolidate mergeinfos? Wouldn't it be useful to add support to SVN
directly to consolidate mergeinfos?

Regards,
Stefan
