--------------------------------

             Summary: Merge can't set properties: invalid status for updating properties
                 Key: SVN-4859
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4859
             Project: Subversion
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.14.0, 1.10.6
            Reporter: Julian Foad
         Attachments: merge-rm-noninh-mi-test-1.patch

A merge failed with
svn: E155023: Can't set properties on '/.../folder': invalid status for updating properties.

Reproduced in a test (attached) that merges the removal of a folder that had non-inheritable mergeinfo.

The merge and its output look like:
{code:java}
svn merge -c5 ^/branch_A .../A
--- Merging r5 into '.../A':
D    .../A/D
svn: E155023: Can't set properties on '/.../A/D/gamma': invalid status for updating properties{code}
When a merge deletes a folder then surely it is a bug if it tries to update properties inside that folder.
