> Also Svn doesn't have branches per se. You just use subdirectories. It does have facilities for merging directories and managing these "branches", but it feels real weird to be switching branches with 'cd'.

Also, this means that it's possible to do some horrifying things with branches and tags, like making a merge commit which is isolated to a single directory, or checking out a tag and making a commit to it.

Hopefully no one is actually depending on these workflows being possible, because they make project history extremely hard to follow.
