But revision 4 is the latest revision on that branch. So there aren't
really any changes to merge!
If for example you do a commit to that branch, you could then merge
*that* change back to trunk with
startrevision: 4
endrevision: 5

Of course. If you select revision 4 in the log dialog, TSVN
automatically fills in revisions from:3 to:4 - and in revision 3 the
branch didn't exist yet. You can't merge the branch creation.
