how to update and merge branch in netbeans?

im using netbeans with svn.

i've checked out a project and then i used "copy to..." and chose to copy the trunk to a branch. i deleted the working copy of the trunk and checked out the newly created branch into a working copy and made some changes both in the trunk and the branch.

now..how do i update the branch with the new data of the trunk and how do i merge the br开发者_C百科anch with the trunk using netbeans?

is this possible? cause with "merge to..." i could only chose to merge from a remote repository to a local folder.

how do i update the branch with the new data of the trunk

1. Check out the branch

2. Merge the repository trunk into the checked out branch

3. commit the branch to the repository

how do i merge the branch with the trunk

1. Check out the trunk

2. Merge the repository branch into the checked out trunk

3. commit the trunk to the repository

You can't merge two repository projects in Netbeans without making local copies.
