svn revert

Hi,

Does anyone know why svn revert does not remove any directory or files
that were added as a result of a merge ?

Thanks
Lakshman

Subversion does not know that they were added as a result of a merge.  
As far as Subversion is concerned, they may have just been created by  
you by hand. If Subversion were to remove these upon revert, it would  
destroy original work of yours which does not exist anywhere in the  
repository, which would be very bad. Therefore, Subversion merely  
reverts the addition of the items, and leaves them there so you can  
decide what you want to do with them next.

Use svn resolved to remove those.
