Working directory
The working directory is the top-level directory in a ["Repository"], in which the plain versions of files are available to read, edit and build. Files in the working directory are usually from the ["Tip"], but may be from older revisions, or modified and not yet ["Commit"]ted.
A working directory has one or two ["Parent"] ["Revision"]s. The parent revision or revisions will become the parent revisions of the new revision which will eventually be created by a ["Commit"] of the ["LocalModifications"]. An ["Update"] will change the parent revision, whereas a ["Revert"] will only modify the content of the working directory.
A working directory will only have two parent revisions as the result of a ["Merge"].
