This might be a dumb question but I’m unable to understand:
When we create a new branch, why do we need to ‘switch’? What does this ‘switch’ exactly do? Can’t I use the whole repository as I was using earlier without bothering about switch?
Switch changes the association between your working copy and the path on the server. You can branch from your working copy from trunk (for maintenance) and continue hacking away – still on trunk.
