Not seeing branch mergeinfo properties on repository upgrade to 1.5
Hello all,
I'm attempting to upgrade a 1.4 repository to 1.5.3 for the purposes of getting the merge tracking feature deployed, but I'm running into problems. It appears that my repository's branches are not getting the mergeinfo property populated for some reason. The only merge information I can see using the tools is related to moving files, and there are no svn:mergeinfo properties set anywhere as far as I can tell.
I've done both a full dump/load of the repository as well as trying an svnadmin upgrade + svn-populate-node-origins-index. Is there something else I need to do? Are there other diagnostic tools I can run to see what's going on?
Thank you,
AJ Lewis

The whole point of mergeinfo is to record information that doesn't
actually exist otherwise - traditional merges just look like commits,
the information simply isn't there (barring site-specific conventions
about putting explicit parsable merge commands in commit messages, had
to work through a complicated merge using those once *shudder* but you
could use merge --record-only to convert those by hand...)

What is the svn-populate-node-origins-index too for? I thought that would
populate the mergeinfo properties, but I must be mistaken.
Thanks,

SVn merge properties only exist when you do (commit) a merge.

Hello all,
I'm attempting to upgrade a 1.4 repository to 1.5.3 for the purposes of
getting the merge tracking feature deployed, but I'm running into
problems. It appears that my repository's branches are not getting the
mergeinfo property populated for some reason. The only merge
information I can see using the tools is related to moving files, and
there are no svn:mergeinfo properties set anywhere as far as I can tell.
I've done both a full dump/load of the repository as well as trying an
svnadmin upgrade + svn-populate-node-origins-index. Is there something
else I need to do? Are there other diagnostic tools I can run to see
what's going on?
Thank you,
AJ Lewis

Have a look at my recent threads about merges, and in particular Mark’s
helpful answers. The relevant message is:
