The idea was to keep the pegrev within the svnmerge property. If you run
svnmerge init with latest svnmerge, it does store the pegrev in there. So
what should be actually done is *add* the pegrev to an svnmerge property not
yet updated. So the patch is conceptually wrong.

As I said before, this is really experimental. There are strong issues at
the moment: for instance, there is no way with svn (command line at least)
to know if URL1 at NN and URL2 at MM are actually the same file in different
points of history. Main problem here is that "svn log URL" does not accept
pegrevs, which is really a show-stopper with all this pegrev stuff in
svnmerge. If you could work on this for SVN 1.4 it'd be great.

In other words, please ignore these pegrevs issues, and produce patches
against svn.collab.net. I'm really sorry I didn't say this before and Raman
did his work against my repository, but official work should now be done on
svn.collab.net directly.
