nobody replied to the reminder because you cut out the content of your original
mail, so we didn't know what it was about ;-)

To answer the question, it is not really an issue. You want to merge the
revisions that made changes on your branch, but you do not want to merge the
revision that created the branch. The branch creation revision should not be
selected. I thought this was clear in the manual now.
