- * r888979, r889081
-   Make 'svnadmin load --parent-dir PATH' smart enough to know to prepend a
-   leading slash onto PATH when using it as a prefix for fixed-up mergeinfo.
+ * r889840
+   When producing svn_mergeinfo_t from string representations, or vice-versa,
+   tolerate relative merge source paths, but convert such paths to absolute
+   paths in the resulting string/mergeinfo.
    Justification:
-     This bug is the reason why all the mergeinfo in our project
-     history at the moment is syntactically invalid.
+     This prevents any syntactically invalid mergeinfo created by issue #3547
+     from breaking just about everything that uses mergeinfo, see http://
+     mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-dev/200912.mbox/browser.
