Assuming that you're using SharePoint 2007, you can use STSADM for adding users to groups. SP2010 is off topic.
Some information on how you can do this can be found here. It's not as easy and simple as doing all this manually but it'll save you heaps of time.

Hi,
I agree with Steven.
You need to add these users from group 1 into group 2 manually, in addition, SharePoint groups doesnt support nesting.

Hi,
There is no OOB way to copy users between sharepoint groups. Also nesting of groups are not supported as well.
You can write some C# or powershell code to do the same. I hope this will help you out.Thanks, Rahul Rashu
