My team has been using svnmerge for a couple years and it does exactly

tell it to merge specific revisions or all that haven't been merged. It
tracks which revisions have been merged in an svn property called
svnmerge-integrated.

That said, I'm interested in learning more about git after watching
the video of Linus's talk.
