[svk-devel] Help using svk in a staging development environment.

[Michael Brouwer]

Alway mirror the root of the repository with svk.  That way all branches you
make in svk can be either local (outside the mirror) or shared (inside the
mirror), plus you have access to all tags and branches everywhere.  Other
than that there is no right or wrong way to use branches.  It's really your
own choice.
