FAQ correction

I believe an important step is omitted from the answer to FAQ 36, "I
can't use tags to merge changes from a branch into the trunk like I used
to with CVS, can I?"[1]. After the merge, bar_last_merge should up
updated to reflect the merge. AFAIK, the best way to do this is

    svn delete file:///home/repos/tags/branch_traces/bar_last_merge
    svn copy file:///home/repos/branches/bar_branch \
        file:///home/repos/tags/branch_traces/bar_last_merge \
        -m "merged rNNN to trunk"

Is my understanding correct?

Andrew
