"svn merge" works like "svn diff"

To see the changes made by r7170 youn need to compare 7169:7170

Last, two know the last revision at what a file was last changed, run

svn info pat_to/file

You will see two revision numbers: the current repository revision, and the one for the last change in the file.

I'm still confused.

You said:

        to merge r7170 and r7171 to trunk
        svn merge -r7169:7171 the_URL

Is this a range or just two versions? If I were to use
        svn merge -r 1000:2000

would that only look at version 1000 and 2000, or would it look at everything in between as well?

I guess I don't understand why I want to merge revision 7170 to trunk. I only want to merge the contents of 7171 to trunk.

Shouldn't I compare the current trunk version of changelog.xml to the
current branch version of changelog?

If I understand the svn output correctly, changelog.xml was last changed in revision 7168.

Branch's changelog version was last changed in revision 7171.

So don't I want to run a diff on 7168 and 7171 rather than 7169 and 7171 like you said?

        svn merge -r7168:7171 URL

would be what I am looking for?
