Hernan,
    Glad to hear you got it working.  As for the command-line way:

svn merge [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] PATH_TO_WORKING_COPY_YOU_WISH_TO_MERGE_CHANGES_INTO

Sorry for the weird looking command but I tried to put some useful tidbits into the command.  ;)

Take care,

Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,
I was using a graphical tool to do the merge. The dry run would show all the files that would be
updated but when I ran it "for real" nothing really changed on my working, local trunk, copy.

I did an svn stat and saw no changes, did an svn up and it failed. Can't remember exactly the error
msg but was something about not a working directory or can not run from the same directory.

I ended up doing a new svn co from the trunk, updated the project files and xdocs, rebuilding and
committing. I couldn't find any other way to do it, then I updated the web site from the trunk.

What would the "svn command line" way be for merging the branch into the trunk?

Thanks

Cheers!
Hernan
