I wanted to mute the svn merge info property on my subversion server

Is there such a way

You could set up a pre-commit hook that makes sure that this property isn't touched in commits.


We don't need the info currently and when merging it is causing a
huge log with all changes to property being recorded and what we need
is only the code merge

Actually, there should be just a single directory (the root directory of the project) which receives this property. This assumes that you always merged from and to that directory, otherwise elements underneath that directory can also receive their own and distinct mergeinfo property, which they will also retain over future merges.

I'd suggest this:
1. Educate your users that for proper merge tracking, they should always use the root directory as source and target even if the changes are only in a subdirectory thereof.
2. Delete the mergeinfo property from all non-root files and directories.
3. Optionally set up a pre-commit hook that verifies that only root directories receive the merge info.

The result is that you have proper merge tracking (sorry, you say you don't want that, but it's hard for me to imagine that) but the only place where it is recorded is the root of your project. I'd hope that that could make everyone happy.
