To Merge or copy a feature branch?

Hi Everyone,

I have created a branch for a new feature I am working on and am now
ready to merge my branch back to the trunk.
All files of the new work (But for a couple) are in a new sub directory.

Ie.
I have;
trunk/project1
branches/project1/feature1

I was thinking of simply copying the feature1 folder and all contents
into trunk/project1 (via svn copy) as opposed to doing a merge...
Is this a good practice? Or should I perform the needed task via a
merge operation?

As always - thanks for your thoughts.
Gavin.
