Jostein, you seem to get confused about how to do merging every time it
comes up. Think of it this way: how would you see Patrick's patch if
you wanted to examine it? You'd simply diff r7867:7868 of the trunk,
right? That's what the commit-mailer program does after every commit:
it compares two consecutive trees.

So, think of 'svn merge' as the cousin of 'svn diff'. Both tools use
the exact same syntax to define a patch.

  $ svn diff -r7867:7868 http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk

...will show Patrick's changes in your terminal, so

  $ cd 0.34-branch-wc/
  $ svn merge -r7867:7868 http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk

...will merge that exact same change into your branch working-copy.
