TFS replace trunk with branch

I've got a branch from trunk in TFS on which development is complete. I understand that merging back into trunk should be the next step, but due to a situation beyond my control, I am not able to do that. I'm satisfied the branch represents my complete application. Is there a merge option that will simply take the branch as the trunk?

As I read the MS documentation on MERGE, the baseless merge comes close to what I want. But, I understand that the trunk files would still be part of the result, which I do not want.

A branch has a name and a purpose. You could of course rename the branch, or change its purpose. You could also label your current branch... Or create a new branch from your current development branch.

Whether that's a good idea, that's something else.
