@Lorenz: I think, there is a slight difference.
Brendan's example has only two living branches. If they can ensure that
there will never be more than these, then it will be ok.
If there are any doubts, then they should better add a further node for
branching. Let's see:
Brendan's example
[root]
* trunk
* development
Alternative
[root]
* development
* branches
** stable1 (or 'trunk' as in the example)
** /first future stable branch/
** ...
But it's more (than) a matter of taste.
The Idea behind the branches node is to have a standard place for
branching whenever this will be nessessary. *Branches are useless* if
there is only one developer with a constant working style (never
learning, never trying some new) quite unlikely in my opinion. ;)
Best,
Wolf
