Summary:  xtla doesn't manage correctly unnamed branches

Original Submission:  Example of what is an unnamed branch:



$ tla branches [EMAIL PROTECTED]

unnamed

unnamed--named

unnamed--otherbranch

$ tla versions [EMAIL PROTECTED]

unnamed--0

$ tla versions [EMAIL PROTECTED]                                            

unnamed--named--0



(The [EMAIL PROTECTED] archive is available here:

http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/arch/test/)



Please note that the actual name of a branch can't be the empty string ([EMAIL 
PROTECTED] is not a legal version name). The direct consequence of this is that 
we can manage unnamed branch by just naming the corresponding branch "".



Note also that a version name can contain only digits and dots, whereas a 
branch name must begin with a letter. Therefore, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is 
necessarily a version name and not a branch name.



I can see at least 3 places where xtla should be modified to manage unnamed 
branches:



* Name reading engine



* Archive tree builder



* string full name <-> (archive category branch version) conversion functions.
