That depends on where you want your code to go in.

If it is a new feature then it needs to go into trunk at a minimum.  Trunk and branch-2 are very similar right now so if you want it to go into the next release with MRV2 you may want to target branch-2 as well.  It should be minimal effort to have it go into both trunk and branch-2.  If it is something for the current stable line (MRV1) you want to target that too, but in many cases it may be a lot of effort because trunk and branch-1 have diverged significantly.
