From the very beginning our teams realized the need to keep track of revision numbers when merging and always specified the revision numbers needed for the merge. With the new Merge Tracking features in Subversion 1.5.x, we are looking to see how we can simplify our merge processes.

For both of these you would need to install the CollabNet Desktop and
use the merge client it provides on top of Subclipse.

In the History view there is a drop-down for "Include Merged
Revisions". This adds a merged revisions column to the view.

The best way is described here:

You can certainly fill out the Subclipse merge dialog with From
revision = 303 and To revision = 302 as well.
