Named branches allow assigning persistent symbolic names to branches of development inside a single repository.

== create a branch ==
To begin a branch, mark your current working directory and then commit it:
{{{
$ hg branch
$ hg branch newfeature
$ hg branch
newfeature
$ hg ci -m "start feature branch"
$ hg parents
changeset: 3899:c08bfc770d37
branch: newfeature
tag: tip
user: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com>
date: Tue Dec 19 14:20:11 2006 -0600
summary: start feature branch
}}}

== commit changes to a branch ==
From this moment on, all commits will get tagged with the supplied branch name. When merging with another branch, the local branch name takes precedence:

{{{
$ hg branch
newfeature
$ hg in remote
searching for changes
changeset: 3900:3be94ff00829
branch: main
tag: tip
parent: 3898:93e5f07baf75
user: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com>
date: Tue Dec 19 14:26:52 2006 -0600
summary: bug fix

$ hg pull remote
pulling from remote
searching for changes
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files (+1 heads)
(run 'hg heads' to see heads, 'hg merge' to merge)
$ hg merge
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
(branch merge, don't forget to commit)
$ hg branch
newfeature
}}}

Branch names can be used anywhere that tag names can, including log, diff, push, and pull. When a branch has multiple heads, the tipmost revision of the branch will be found. Here are some examples:

{{{
$ hg branches
main 3900:3be94ff00829
newfeature 3899:c08bfc770d37
$ hg log -r main
changeset: 3900:3be94ff00829
branch: main
tag: tip
parent: 3898:93e5f07baf75
user: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com>
date: Tue Dec 19 14:26:52 2006 -0600
summary: bug fix
$ hg in -r main ../bd2
searching for changes
no changes found
}}}

== switch between branches ==
{{
$ hg update -C main
$ hg update -C newfeature
}}
