I hope this does not mean that you must have trunk, but instead
Subversion will use the place where the branch was, well, branched off
from.

For example, if I create the branch with

svn copy http://myserver/path/to/dir1 path/to/dir2

And then I use

svn merge --reintegrate http://myserver/path/to/dir2

Subversion will do the same as

svn merge http://myserver/path/to/dir1@LAST-REV
http://myserver/path/to/dir2
Am I right?
