Description: ------------ The "$properties += $this->properties;" line in the process function of the Generic_Sniffs_VersionControl_SubversionPropertiesSniff class causes properties you are looking for to be added to the properties that exist. This causes the test for missing properties to fail as the code now thinks the file has all the properties you are looking for it to have when it really doesn't.

I didn't write this one, so I really have no idea why that line is in there. But it doesn't make any sense to me either. I've removed it and pushed a commit: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/commit/8787a9dbb9b038fbafd1c78da 45846253e9b56f6 If you remove that line, does the sniff work for you?

Changing it to something like "$allProperties = $properties + $this->properties;" and then iterating over $allProperties in the foreach loop is what seems to be working for me.

Thanks Kevin. I didn't read the code properly. I committed a new fix: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/commit/70836241a584d8ddcecfc3f5db 09d10827982da0
