What happens if you try this 2-URL merge instead?

  svn merge ^/apps/trunk/pim_at_8027 ^/apps/trunk/pim_at_9155 --dry-run

Does this command run the sync merge you expect?

It would be interesting to know if 'svn merge ^/apps/trunk/pim'
with a Subversion 1.9.7 client produces the same 'reintegrate' error.
Perhaps this is a bug which has been fixed in 1.9?

( By the way, based on its compiled date your SVN client is vulnerable to
CVS-2017-9800: https://subversion.apache.org/security/CVE-2017-9800-advisory.txt
Applying the "ssh -q --" workaround mentioned there to your client's
configuration file should be enough to prevent an exploit. )
