-Thinking about this some more, I think that the role of the
-main-branch is to officially sanction the current state of the code as
-"released". If a series of commits will leave a branch in a
-known-unusable form, they should be carried out in some appropriately
-named development branch. Then the log of commits to the main branch
-("bzr log -n 1" for bzr > ) should produce a fairly respectable
-changelog. Obviously we are all quite guilty of doing most of our
-development in single branches, but it may be a useful model going
-forward. This also means that _every_commit_ to a main branch would
-be an official release.
