I don't see how that branching can possibly be avoided. Remember
Mercurial is a distributed and disconnected system. I may tag my
repository while offline, you may do the same. The possible branching
will only be apparent when we push/pull.
No, I believe in a distributed repository there is simply no way to
avoid branching. That's a feature.
