at first glance I would interpret this diagram as rev### being
subfolders of trunc, but that is not consistent with the rest of the
text.

So assuming you realy mean revisions of trunk:

you either take trunk_at_330 and merge in (cherry pick) trunk_at_333,
or take trunk_at_333 and back out ( reverse-merge) the changes from
trunk_at_331.

you might want to read

I would create a release branch from the last stable trunk version
(330) and merge in the trunk revisions that I want to go in the
release. Then create the tag from the branch.
