This is not documentation, this is a commit message. You don't explain how git works in every commit message. It's not relevant how to create Mercurial branches, it could be done through a totally different way and it wouldn't affect this patch. The only thing that is relevant is that a new Mercurial branch is created somehow. But since you never, *ever*, agree that a piece of information in the commit message is not useful, I realize this is wasted breath. > we do want to > create a branch, but the command would fail without newbranch=True. > > This only matters when force_push=False, but setting newbranch=True > unconditionally does not hurt. > > The only part that I came up with on my own is "but ... does not > hurt" at the end. If that is incorrect, please supply an update.
