What, if
- the server containing the repository doesn't respond?
- there is currently no connection to update but you need to remerge
because of new useflags added (or similar)?
In both cases with a normal merge it will die when trying to do svn up.
Of course with 1) you could hack around
that and specify the last revision in the repository, which btw. did a
svn up, too, but this was changed today.
