From: Antoine Pitrou
- a "branch" usually means a "named branch": a set of changesets bearing the same label (e.g. "default"); that label is freely chosen by the committer at any point, and enforces no topological characteristic
There are *some* topological restrictions, because hg won't let you assign a branch name that's been used before to a node unless one of its parents has that name. So you can't create two disconnected subgraphs whose nodes have the same branch name. -- Greg This email may be confidential and subject to legal privilege, it may not reflect the views of the University of Canterbury, and it is not guaranteed to be virus free.
