Description

Merge and mergetracking work fine on a moved target
(Assume A_COPY is a branch of ^/A):

>svn move A_COPY branch
A         branch
D         A_COPY
D         A_COPY\B
D         A_COPY\B\E
D         A_COPY\B\E\alpha
D         A_COPY\B\E\beta
D         A_COPY\B\F
D         A_COPY\B\lambda
D         A_COPY\C
D         A_COPY\D
D         A_COPY\D\G
D         A_COPY\D\G\pi
D         A_COPY\D\G\rho
D         A_COPY\D\G\tau
D         A_COPY\D\H
D         A_COPY\D\H\chi
D         A_COPY\D\H\omega
D         A_COPY\D\H\psi
D         A_COPY\D\gamma
D         A_COPY\mu

>svn merge ^^/A branch
--- Merging r2 through r8 into 'branch':
U    branch\B\E\beta
U    branch\D\G\rho
U    branch\D\H\omega
U    branch\D\H\psi
--- Recording mergeinfo for merge of r2 through r8 into 'branch':
 U   branch

But 'svn mergeinfo' doesn't work in the same scenario:

>svn revert -Rq .

>svn move A_COPY branch -q

>svn mergeinfo ^^/A branch
