OK So basically you do it the 'normal' way.

What about this approach -

If I use the Compare function I discover the differences. Then I click
on the files one by one and do the 'copy right to left' think. Then I
commit.

This is not a real 'merge' - it is like manually typing the same thing
into the other branch. But it results in what we need - HEAD of both
branches (or branch and trunk) is in sync.

Is this very illegal and does it hide dangers?

Thanks,
Iv
