Actually, the complaint I've commonly heard from hg and git users is that they want local, intermediate history to be collapsed into one revision/changeset when merging into the target branch. Daniel's example shows that the benefits of branches for review is not limited to Bazaar+Launchpad users <wink>. I do agree that it's a new workflow for Python. >I think it's up to the advocates of branch-based review to improve the >tools, and I think it's worth it. Now, if only I can find some >time... Continuing to use patch-based reviews for Python is fine, and I think as we all adjust to the Mercurial conversion, new and more efficient ways of working will evolve over time. -Barry
