How can I ignore irrelevant mergeinfo changes when scanning a log?

Question

Recently my scan for relevant changes has been including mergeinfo changes that are not relevant and I would like to ignore these revisions where the changes in the log item do not alter any items in the folder which I am iterating.

I can iterate through the svnChangeItems and check for the mergeinfo property but how do I tell if a ChangeItem was made to a file which was committed to the folder whose log items I am scanning. Similar to hide unrelated change paths except if I were to check this option in the log viewer It would not show some relevant revisions which include changes before the folder I was scanning moved. Any ideas?
