Whatever you tried would have changed the trunk from this

1234  Did something - Edward
1233  Did something - Edward
1232  Did something - Edward
1231  Did something - Edward
1230  Did something - Edward
1229  Did something - Edward
1228  Did something - Edward

to

1230  What Matt did - Matt
  1230.5  Did something - Edward
  1230.4  Did something - Edward
  1230.3  Did something - Edward
  1230.2  Did something - Edward
  1230.1  Did something - Edward
1229  Did something - Edward
1228  Did something - Edward

which loses nothing, but makes the timeline of the trunk harder to
follow, so there's a flag set on the repo. to prevent that.

so you just need to branch a fresh copy of the trunk in a separate
folder from where you did your work(*), and them merge from your branch
into the fresh trunk, and push that, resulting in the trunk becoming

1235  .leo association stuff - Matt
  1235.2 more work on association - Matt
  1235.1 first attempt at association - Matt
1234  Did something - Edward
1233  Did something - Edward
1232  Did something - Edward
...

(*) pulling a fresh copy of the trunk is very quick *if* you have your
branches in a common shared repository folder, it may be quite slow
otherwise.
