A branch is just a copy in Subversion. Use svnX’s repository window
copy command.

To merge using svnX 1.3 -
first ensure that the target of your merge is visible in a working
copy window,
then drag the source from a repository window & drop it on the WC
window.
A sheet should then open allowing you to customise the merge options &
preview the results.

I'm trying this with 1.3.4 and here is my list of actions:

1 - Open SVNX

2 - Open the Repositories and Working Copies windows

3 - Double click on my destination in Working Copies to open a 'Working Copy Window' (trunk in this case)

4 - From the Repositories window grab the 7.0 branch and drop that line on the 'Working Copy Window'

Nothing happens.

I know that there are outstanding merges to be performed between 7.0 into the trunk as I just made a change to the 7.0 branch.

What am I doing wrong? I've done this in the deep past and now it isn't happening.
