Question on TSVN Copy

In the TortoiseSVN "Help", under "Copying/Moving/Renaming Files and
Folders", it reads "...if you subsequently fix a bug in the original
files, you can only merge the fix automatically if the new copy is
related to the original in Subversion."

I have a trunk and one branch that was established several levels up
from the repository root. There is a directory of files that is
below the place where the branch was created, that I need to move up
into the trunk. Then I need to make a copy of that directory of
files from the trunk to the branch.

Plan is to use the right-click menu and make an "SVN Copy" in the
branch. But, I'm confused about "if you... fix a bug in the original
files, you can only merge the fix automatically...". Does this mean
if I change something in the copy of files that are in the trunk, the
change will automatically migrate to the copy of files that are in
the branch? That's certainly not what I want.

Thanks...
