I haven't tracked into it, but there was an old discussion on IRC that I
missed until today. Basically it mentioned that after merging and
committing, if you merge back into the other branch, you can commit
that, and ping-pong ad nauseum.

I thought I remembered the second merge used to state 'Nothing to do.'

I tried this with a copy of bzr-0.8, and it still created a no-change
merge, so if this an actual bug, it was made a while ago.

Are we intending to add logic to avoid ping-pong merging? (I know we
have 'bzr pull' but that loses branch identity)
