Description

Treat all revisions from a 'copy' source as merge info for the
destination.  This equates to turning all those revs into actual
merge info (target merge info = source revs + source merge info).

Remaining work:

* Handle WC -> WC 'copy'/'move' operations.  (dlr)

  Update (2007/04/23): Discussion with some Subversion dev Googlers
  indicates that we should purposely break command-line UI
  compatibility here, and instead require an explicit option to
  avoid contacting the repos.
