I raised this sometime back. Anyways, am posting again to get feedback. I want to implement a 'svnmerge status/log' feature.

On 'svnmerge status' in a working copy, the user would see something like the following...

svnmerge status for http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side:

head : http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/1.2.x/contrib/client-side
Integrated : 1-345,678,1234
Available : 377,1454

head : http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/1.3.x/contrib/client-side
Integrated : 346-376,679-1233,1235
Available : 378,1455

Question, comments?

Areas I need help:
1) Should we call it log or status? I would prefer to call this 'svn status', which is much more of what the output is, than log - which could also be confused with 'svn log'.

2) Should the status also list the blocked revisions?

3) How do I go about submitting patches for this... 
   a) Should I file an issue somewhere and start working?
   b) Should I submit multiple (3 or 4) small patches or one
      monolithic patch? In the former approach, the functionality
      would be exposed in the last commit only. Till then, the
      patches would look mostly unrelated.

Regards,
Madan.
