Patch from Brian Denny <brian@...>:

Resolves issue #785:

* merge-cmd.c (svn_cl__merge): If no target path was specified, try to
infer it from the source path(s).

* main.c (svn_cl__cmd_table): Document the new use case in the output
of 'svn help merge'. Also, refer to arguments as two "sources" and
a wc "target". [rewritten by sussman]

* merge_tests.py (merge_with_implicit_target): New test function.
Merges a file, specifying a revision range and source file/URL but
no target path. [docstring tweaked by sussman; also move #1176
docstring into issue comment, so docstring fits on one line during run.]

* ch04.xml: Explain the conditions under which 'svn merge' can infer a
target path. [tweaked by sussman]

* ch08.xml: Document the new use case in the reference section for
'svn merge', copying from 'svn help merge' text. Add an example.
[tweaked by sussman]

Little doc tweaks.

* README: the documentation is not in info format, nor is it built
automatically anymore. update with Subversion Book information.

* doc/book/book/appd.xml: it's RFC 3253, not 3256. :-)

Patch from Larry Shatzer. Fix issue #1189:

Patch from Brian Denny.
