Re: swapping trunk and branch

I should have mentioned a couple of things..
I have added directories, and moved some files. Also I am using svn1.4
(still the current Red Hat release) which I understand has a much limited
version of merge than 1.5+

I tried merging but got a lot of errors - if this is the right way to go
about it though, I'll have another attempt.
