Small Note: Svn Merge Reintegrate

This entry does not have to do with Planning, but some softwares we are using.

Users of svn know that "svn merge" is often troublesome. Recently I was trying to merge some code from branches using the reintegrate option. I understand this makes use of some new feature introduced in svn 1.5. However, when I tried using "svn merge --reintegrate" it failed complaining that the server does not have mergeinfo. The sourceforge repositories have to be manually upgraded using "svnadmin upgrade" as described here.
