I think you must have your answer by now... but, just
in case.
If you have every used patch and diff in Unix. Think
of a merge as a intelegent diff/patch operation.
svn merge -r42:HEAD
http://svn.mycomp.com/svnrepo/project/trunk/project
This is to say. Create a diff of the changes made
from version 42 to HEAD version from the trunk
location and apply the resulting diff as a patch to my
current directory location. In other words If you
had checked out your branch to the current directory
then you would be applying the changes from trunk to
the current location. Remember ... 42 is the state
from... so if you need a change from the checkin that
pushed the repository to rev 42... then you want
version 41... to get the changes that happened to
create version 42 from 41.
Please Eveyone correct me if I'm wrong.
