But, http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/Tutorials/CentralizedWorkflow#id15 says: "Organizing branches Branches inside a shared repository are almost as flexible as normal branches. That means you can copy them with cp -r, move them with mv and delete them with rm. The one restriction is that you cannot move them outside the repository." Which is correct? If I have my branch in a directory called "trunk" inside a shared repository, can I safely rename it to "trunk-foo"? If I copy it to "trunk-copy", does this become an independent copy? Thanks in advance.
