I guess you have not changed anything outside of the cli directory in 
your branch. If this is the case it is easy: Just do an

svn cp pypy-antocuni/pypy/translator/cli pypy-dist/pypy/translator/

(with appropriate paths). In general svn merge is the right thing to 
use, but it is really annoying and does not work very well (in fact it 
works so badly that Armin wrote a tool that helps doing a merge without 
using svn merge :-)
