hi

I'm currently looking at mercurial for some maven managed projects. It
looks like named branches would be the way to go there (more on it at
the end of this mail for those interested), but I read on the
mercurial wiki that named branches are to be avoided, but without
providing much details. Up to now, the only drawback spotted is having
many old branches in the branches view, when switching, but it doesn't
look intriguing...

So, in the end, is there any "strong" reason to avoid named branches ?
Would 1000 of them kill performance or something similar ?

Thanks in advance

PS : why named branches look like the way to go ? The maven projects
used rely heavily on workspace resolution, available through the
m2eclipse plugin. As such, having different projects open from the
same pom would be quite an issue. Whereas using named branches and
switching between them look like perfectly solving this issue...
