1) The svnmerge script: There is a copy in contrib in a src
   dist and it is easily found on the net.

2) Judicious commenting: mentioning the revision range in the
   commit message, as suggested in the book (already mentioned).

3) Judicious tagging: use a tag to track the last merge point.
   This is described in the gcc svn howto:
   http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SvnBranch
   (other good info in their wiki)

4) Some combination of the above.
