Should we not use svnmerge.py to record merges?

Why not require its use only for release branches?  It's already setup
for all such branches...

As I've said before, those people who want us to use svnmerge.py
everywhere need to commit some instructions somewhere into HACKING.
Ideally, example snippets should also be included in STATUS or
whatever.  But, forcing people to play hunt the wumpus to merge is
silly.  -- justin

Hi All,

I looked at using svnmerge.py for this merge, recalling a few posts 
mentioning it.  But after finding little in the way of guidance on how to 
use it on an existing branch that's been merged into repeatedly already, I 
turned my attention to other things.  I did this somewhat out of 
frustration but mostly because I was unaware it was required...

...So what is our policy exactly?  There is no mention of it in HACKING, 
should there be?

I believe this is (and should be) a policy applied at a given branch
owner's discretion.
