This probably isn't news to anyone, just a gotcha that I ran into, and not for 
the first time.  Figured I'll describe it on the list and see if anyone has any 
thoughts.  This isn't a bug or anything; Fossil is behaving according to 
design.  It's just a surprise due to not paying complete attention to what's 
really going on.

The other day I did [fossil update] in my SQLite trunk checkout, got version 
[c6399958].  Today I did [fossil update] and stayed at the same version despite 
pulling many artifacts.

[c6399958] started life on trunk but later moved to a branch, so my update kept 
the checkout on the branch.  The record shows that  [c6399958] inherits 
sym-tkt-2326c258 from [c0f4e308], which was added by [1e3cf43e] a minute after 
[60161b5f] updated the comment to say that the change isn't a complete fix.

My naïve user perspective is that I started on trunk and therefore every update 
should keep me on trunk.  But that's not the full story since the checkout 
version's branch can be edited.  If I don't pay close attention to changes in 
branch, I will be surprised when my future updates stop "doing" anything.
