If you believe your revision 139 was erroneous, you can undo it by
performing a reverse merge. The book shows how:

svn.branchmerge.commonuses.html#svn.branchmerge.commonuses.undo

svn merge works correctly. You just have to tell it the correct thing
to merge. Try undoing 139 by performing a reverse merge as described
in the book. Then try doing the merge again. Do not commit it
immediately after that; first examine your working copy to see if the
correct changes have been performed. If not, tell us again exactly
what commands you did, and what you were trying to do.
