How to merge one single revision using Command Line

Question

Hi I am trying to merge one single revision using CL in SVN using this command:

svn merge -r 5454 URL

but I am getting the following error

svn: Second revision required

My revision is not the latest revision but buried about 90 revisions from the latest update. Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

When you should provide a diff (including diff and merge commands), you can use either -rSTART:FINISH (-r5453:5454 in your case) or -cSINGLE (-c5454) in your case.
