Question about working directly in a branch

Hi,

I have a question about working directly in a branch (I've been using SVN for a little while, but never had to branch before).

My repository has a standard layout:

Code:

/project
   /trunk
   /branches
   /tags

I do all of my work directly in under trunk (main line), I suppose this is my "working copy". Now, I have created a branch:

/branches/v2.1

My plan is to work on both the main line and v2.1 in parallel, eventually/periodically merging v2.1 changes back to trunk.

My question is: can I work directly in my local copy of /branches/v2.1 and commit from there, or do I need to something with my "working copy"?

(In case it helps: I use TortoiseSVN, along with Visual Studio 2008 and the VisualSVN plugin).

Thanks.
