Maybe, but in this case the feature will die...
Only the changes in one revision I want to move back to the main trunk.
In fact I can do it manually too, but I want to know what's happening here.

I don't think so.
First I tried it with TortoiseSVN -> there I selected the revision

Afterwards I tried it also with the commandline client and
a parameter like -r 277:278 should do the trick, isn't it?

It tried also the option ignore-ancestry (commandline and tortoise),
but in both cases subversion starts with earlier versions.
