As Alexander mentioned, you are explicitly doing a cherrypick in this step:
tschaboo at hardy64:~/tmp/2$ cd ../1
tschaboo at hardy64:~/tmp/1$ bzr merge -r -2..-1 ../2
 M  asdf



^- By supplying '-r -2..-1' you are saying "merge everything in '-1'
that isn't in '-2'".

At the moment, we only record when a revision and all of its ancestry is
merged into the other branch.
