You and I have done full tree merges (using svnmerge, but that's irrelevant) so that the merge info is on the root directory.
I thought svnmerge used the svnmerge-blocked and svnmerge-integrated properties, while svn itself uses svn:mergeinfo.
When you merge using svnmerge it uses svn to do the actual merge so you get both. For an example, see the property changes on: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/55206/
I did see a script somewhere for converting svnmerge properties to svn:mergeinfo though.
I came across it last night, it's is at: http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/svnmerge/svnmerge-... I think it has to be run on the server. Although, it wouldn't be too hard to do it manually. But I was trying to concentrate on how (or I suppose if) we're going to use subversion's native merge. We can deal with the historical data once we've decided that. Daniel
