Not only will that apply the changes made in the branch to the trunk
working copy, it'll also undo any changes that were made only in the
trunk. I'm guessing that's not what you want. More usual I think
would be

svn merge -rA:B branch_url

where A is the revision where the branch was created (or the last
revision of the branch from which you merged before, if you've merged
before) and B is the HEAD revision, or the most recent revision of
the branch you want to merge.
