Remember the 'ignore ancestry' option #551

In the merge dialog, remember the state of the 'ignore ancestry' option, 
preferably by repository.

Our standard project directory structure currently includes a branch here: 
"/branches/LargeDire​ctoryAvoidance". The name of this branch suggests its 
purpose.

With the new version of SVN, however, I can no longer switch to this branch 
without selecting the "Ignore Ancestry" option in the "Switch" dialog.

I can fully understand the reasoning for making this the default behaviour, 
from a purist's point of view. However, for some of us, it would be less 
inconvenient if we could reverse the default. I've seen a few discussions fly 
past related to this issue.

What I'd propose is a checkbox on one of the "Dialogs" setting screens to set 
"Ignore Ancestry" by default. Then those of us who are NOT purists could do our 
possibly dangerous behaviour at our leisure.
