Well, following the thread it seems you've pointed out a good test to
add to the regression tests :-)
I also have to admit that it took some testing to understand exactly
what you meant. The failure comes when trying to merge from a branch
where a file has been added in a directory that has been renamed in the
trunk. All other scenarios I could come up with works as I would expect.
When this little omission is fixed I'll be even more sure that using
Arch is the right thing to do :-)
(As I read the blog entry, the "litmus test" related to files only, and
that is something that Arch handles just fine.)
