Log dialog. Select the revisions from HEAD to the one you want
(shift-click). Then choose "revert these revisions". That will merge
the changes back. Then you can commit again.

This only works if there are no "holes" in the selected revision
range. If you don't want to revert some changes you made in between,
you have to "revert changes from this revision" from single revisions.
