Since you resolved into the .mine file, click "resolved using mine".
This is how I used to merge with Araxis. (sometimes I might merge into
the ".newrev" file and use "resolved using theirs", yes this does work,
"resolved using theirs" is not the same as "revert" as you might think!)
It sounds to me like you specified Araxis as the tool and just allowed
TSVN to call it with the default parameters. There is an alternative
setup, as recommended on both the Araxis website and the TSVN help. In
that setup you merge into the common ancestor file in the middle (the
".oldrev" file), but when you click save, changes to the middle file
don't actually overwrite that file, they overwrite the one that's got
the conflict markers. For that setup, use "resolved".
That said, I found it easier to stick with the "default" .mine solution.
Also, it's worth spending some time trying to get your head round
Tortoise Merge, because it has the advantage that you only have to merge
the conflicted lines, the rest is done for you. With either of the two
Araxis configurations, you have to merge everything.
