Not only that, but paths can change so revision 2942 of the branch
"development" today may not be the same as revision 2942 of the branch
"development" in 6 months time. To be absolutely sure of getting the
correct revision you also need to know a peg revision. (Probably the
revision which was current when the OP created the table of revision
numbers.)
