Yes, are you sure that they have been added in this range of revision ?
Else they will be skipped.

That's not a good idea to copy them like that. You will break the history of these files (they will be new files with an other history) and you will loose the advantage of svn cheap copy for these files.

Try to understand the reason of this merge problem. It MUST work if you merge the good range of revision.
