You only need tho know the "Last Changed Rev" number if you want to apply/create a patch based on the last change in that file.

But in this case I also wanted to do a merge based on the previous last change in the file (since i had made two changes to one file, right?)

So for index.xml I now know the last change was in revision 6860. I would need to use the 'svn log' command to find when the previous-before-last was made right? Or can I simply count one backward and use 6859. Even if there was no change made to index.xml in revision 6859, it would still work because even though there was no change made in revision 6859, the file does exist in r6859 and the changes I'm looking for might be made in 6840 for all I care.

But if I want to get the changes before that one, I would need to use the 'svn log' command to find the correct revision because going down one more to 6958 may not work.
