Switching before committing

Hi,

Is it right that you can switch before you've committed? I just did it
accidentally and I seemed to end up with a huge mess from which it
seemed impossible to recover. In the end I had to checkout a new copy
and apply all my changes from the branch again. Perhaps there should be
a warning, telling you that you have uncommitted changes before it
initiates the switch?

Also, it seems a bit odd that you initiate the switch from a subfolder,
it seems to check out a new copy to that subfolder rather than switching
the whole working copy to that version. Surely if you switch in a
subfolder, it should either just switch that subfolder or switch the
whole working copy, but not checkout all the files from the root into
the subfolder?

Thanks,

Nick...
