It seems to me that *someone* should draw it, and post it.

If you look at the image, the central "spine" is the main tree. With
the branches coming off (tagged in blue). What I was trying to convey
is that we're used to "tip" being the most recent putback in the main
tree, i.e.: putback 6. In the branches case, if onnv_60 branched off,
and there were respins or backouts that came in *after* putback6 went
in, then "tip" would point to a changeset in the onnv_60 branch, rather
than the main branch.
cheers,
steve
