I have a file that has been branched.
Then the trunk version was deleted.
How do I merge this deletion into the branch?

When I try to merge the file I always get the error message

Quote:
Merge status operation failed.
svn: '/xxxxx/trunk/filename.xml' path not found: 404 Not Found

Hello,

Probably you called merge operation in not correct way, e.g. specifying not
correct revisions range or url. You can check it, by using Preview: in Merge
dialog specify required input info and call Preview button in left below
corner where you'll see the results of merge. Also when calling Preview,
useful info is written in console (SVN Console), .i.e. how exactly svn merge
operation was called.
Also how did you call Merge action, e.g. from what tab and which input
parameters? I tried in the following way: select project and call Merge
action, then in 'URL' tab select corresponding project folder in trunk.

I tried reintegrate first several times.
Then I tried the one URL.
Never understood how to use two URL in this case.

Would have liked to merge on the folder, but the file is situated in the root folder of a massive project I'm not ready to reintegrate yet.
Just wanted to merge this file deletion into my branch.

Hello,

>I tried reintegrate first several times.
Reintegrate can be used only once, i.e. after reintegrate branch is no
longer usable for further work. As you're trying to propogate changes from
trunk to branch, you need to use Merge dialog with 'URL' tab. If file was
deleted in a separate revision from other changes which you don't want to
apply, then make merge only for this revision.
