merge with new directory?

Hi all,

I'm trying to merge changes from trunk to a branch that have a new directory
and am not quite sure what to do. I have a directory thirdparty/lib/jaxb-
2.0.3 which is on trunk and I want to copy (merge) it to mainline as it is
required by some other changes that I have merged in. Here's what I'm
trying:

C:\1_1\tJunction\thirdparty\lib>svn merge -r 12044:17051
http://svn/tJunction/trunk/thirdparty/lib/jaxb-2.0.3
svn: Unable to find repository location for '
http://svn/tJunction/trunk/thirdparty/lib/jaxb-2.0.3' in revision 12044

This error message is correct. There was no jaxb-2.0.3 in revision 12044.
It was added in 16714.

In
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.branchmerge.copychanges.html#svn.branchmerge.copychanges.specific
under
"why not use patches instead" it says that what I'm trying to do is possible
so I'm a little confused by the above.

I could of course do svn merge -r 12044:17051
http://svn/tJunction/trunk/thirdparty/lib but that brings in other changes I
don't want. Any suggestions?

cheers
