This is what I was talking about, except it's -j<tag>:<date>, not the other way around.

Your original question mentioned merging the original import.  That
doesn't make a whole lot of sense, since a merge from nothing to your
last import into the trunk will attempt to merge files that don't need
it and produce a conflict for every previously existing file.

If you meant that you had a version checked in on the trunk, then
attempted to convert to a vendor branch by importing the next version,
then you may be able to salvage things by tagging the original checkin
of doxygen on the trunk (or using the existing tag if you thought to tag
it originally) and using that as your first merge option.

Or you can resort to Mark's diff/patch suggestion.  A CVS merge is just
a diff/patch anyhow, except you specify two tags instead of directories
as the end points of the diff computation and apply the result
automatically to the workspace.  CVS also puts in nifty conflict markers
for you instead of making you look through *.rej files to resolve
conflicts, of course.
