SVN Mergeinfo properties on paths other than the Working Copy root

I have an svn repository where I have trunk and a branch. I intend to merge the trunk into the branch at regular intervals, however, when I do this I see many property status changes, in additional to actual file content changes.

When updating from a SVN respository, is it possible to update another repository, too?

The problem: I often have to update two or more repositories: One for the project I'm working on and one or more libraries. Is there a way to "chain" the updates, so that every time I update project X, library Y gets updated, too? I know, this is an unusual question, because I guess things like that would be part of a build process, bu...

SVN for Delphi Developers
