I have created now a "patch" using

hg diff -b -r 207:159 > comments-patch.txt

but I don't think I can apply this directly to SVN, because it does not 
contain
the SVN revision numbers etc., right?

But I rather have to get these files and add them to my local SVN 
checkout and proceed from there, right?

Or is there an alternative approach (I mean as long as SVN is the master)?

Thanks
