Here's another data point in favor of multiple branches inside a single directory. Many developers now work in IDEs or similar tools. These tools almost always have a notion of "project" which hardcodes a directory. If switching branches requires switching directories, one must have multiple "projects" and synchronize configuration among them. I rarely work in an IDE and darcs has caused me grief in this respect. I can imagine how IDE-centric developers would feel. -- Michael
