negative numbers of revisions pulled ??

I have a couple of branches which diverged, then were merged back into
sync.  Of course, the merged-from branch had more revisions recorded
than the other.  Pulling a minor revision to this branch resulted in a
negative number of revisions being pulled, and the revision history
being replaced with that of the branch which previously had been merged to.

So, two questions: (1) Why?  and more important, (2) some of the merges
contained many patches and it was useful, in the merged-from branch, to
have these considered as separate revisions.  Now that the pull command
has overwritten the revision history (I did *not* use --overwrite!), how
do I get diffs between these individual changes, given that the merge
lumps them as one big revision?

I've kept the .bzr.backup directories so if restoration would be a good
option, I can go for it. :-)
