That's not how you do that. Your command would make a recipe that
transforms repa into branchb. But doing that in a working copy of
branchb doesn't make sense, therefore nonsensical errors are produced.

You probably want

svn merge -r42:HEAD http://repository/abc/trunk/repa

where 42 is either the revision at which branchb was created from
repa, or the last revision at which you performed the above merging
procedure.

It looks to me like these are a trunk and a branch in the same
repository. If they're actually different repositories, as you said
above, then 42 is the revision in repa at which you did the last merge.
