If the changes are all specific to a certain file/directory and there are no
changes you *don't* want to backport from that file/directory, the easiest
thing to do is check out the 7.1.x branch, copy over the files/directory
from the trunk, and check in the result. There are doubtless more
sophisticated ways if you happen to have the whole repository including
branches checked out, but I think that is the simplest and safest.
