So:

1: Disconnect my branch working copy and delete the project.
2: Check out the trunk.
3: Highlight the trunk project, select Team->Merge.
4: Specify the first revision in the branch as the start.
5: Specify the last revision in the branch as the end.
6: Merge to.....?

Step 6 is what I don't get, the destination working copy directory that
Subclipse shows (greyed out) is always the Eclipse workspace base
directory, in my case /home/kauer/eclipse_workspace. The URL it shows,
also greyed out, is the highlighted project's directory - that bit is
correct.

Regards, K.
