Many thanks, r5907 merges them into the trunk. To make your life easier, it is actually sufficient to let us know the related revision numbers.

For *all* maintainers: 

You can always check for eligible patches from another branches (devnut_tiva in our case) with

 svn mergeinfo svn+ssh://username@svn.code.sf.net/p/ethernut/code/branches/devnut_tiva --show-revs eligible

To view the changes of a specific patch use

 svn diff -c <rev#> svn+ssh://username@svn.code.sf.net/p/ethernut/code/branches/devnut_tiva

To merge this revision use

 svn diff -c <rev#> svn+ssh://username@svn.code.sf.net/p/ethernut/code/branches/devnut_tiva

If something went wrong, you can still

 svn revert

otherwise

 svn commit

I'm just writing this because I hardly remember that someone here stated that cherry picking (means merging selected patches) isn't possible with subversion. The opposite is true, the way I demonstrated above is required! Otherwise you may run into problems when later re-integrating a branch.

Hope this simple recipe is helpful. The deeper details are explained in the manual at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
