Merge question

A member of my team checked-out our repo. He then branched to work on  
a new feature.

What command does he do to integrate his branch to trunk such that his  
branch will become no longer a branch, but the actual trunk with his  
new feature? Does he have to blow away his branch working-copy and re-
check out the trunk?

Thanks,
b

Modify|Reintegrate Merge is probably the best choice. For details refer to:

In case of Modify|Reintegrate Merge, the branch can't be used anymore.
