Well, you can't really do a reverse merge since that will reverse everything.

(quick terminology note, "revert" in svn speak means removing changes that are in your local working copy.)

Two options...

1. Do a reverse merge and then revert all the files except the 3 in question and the commit.

2. Do an Update to revision 99. (the revisions before your commit). Copy the 3 files to a temp folder. Update your working copy. Put the 3 files from rev99 back into your working copy. Then commit.
