branch question,(can I see log message before the creation of the branch?)

[albert kong <al...@tom.com>]

In r100, I need to make new features for a client, so in r100, I made a branch,
In the branch b1(now is r101), I proceed on, but the client said he doesn't want some features I already
made in r71, r75 etc, then what's the best practice for this purpose?
Is it possible that I could see the log before r101 in branch b1?

You can use reverse-merge, something like this I think

cd <branch b1>
svn merge -c-71 <URL to trunk>

Yes, of course. But make sure NOT to use the --stop-on-copy option with the svn log command (if you use Tortoise this is ticked by default)
