Do you mean branch-to-branch as opposed to branch-to-trunk/trunk-to-branch?

I don't think there's any principal difference between the two. But
you will have to set it up for each branch you wish to do merges
between.

Hm... looking at the tutorials at http://www.orcaware.com/svn/wiki/Svnmerge.py
there are no examples of inter-branch merges, but I guess that the
setup will be similar to what you do on trunk for each branch you wish
to merge back...?

You could try asking on the svnmerge list.
