Re: creating branches

The server keeps a copy of the history. When you do the commit, any history
in the client which the server doesn't have is sent over. The server keeps
a single .cdv directory in which all the history from all the branches it
knows about are intermingled.

Branches on the server should feel familiar to anyone who has used
subversion, only without the pain and restrictions associated with
branching and merging in that system.
