If you have brought the branch up to date, i.e. you have rebased it up to the
current head revision, then integrating is simply equivalent to copying the
branch to the trunk. (The change that needs to be added to the trunk is simply
the current difference between trunk and branch.)

If you haven't yet brought the branch up to date, then there are likely to be
conflicts and you shouldn't be trying to integrate it.

So I don't see why you would need transitive merges etc. in this situation.
