There is no point in using a special branch. It depends on how quick your quickfix is. If you start editing the trunk mirror expecting to finish on a few minutes, but you slowly realize that the issue is not so simple, or some other urgent task arises ("you broke the build, fix it asap!" etc) you will have to deal with a polluted gateway to upstream, which is a inconvenience (move away your "quick" changes, revert modified files, and later recover the changes. `bzr shelve' can be handy here, but I don't recommend it to beginners.) Given the slow commit rate on the Emacs project, I see no problem using the quickfixes branch on a CVS-like way: bind it to upstream and bzr update bzr update bzr commit -m "fixed bug #2434" It is very likely that this works fine with VC. -- Óscar
