What part of the structure of the BK repo don't you understand? Didn'y
you pay attention to what Larry said? The tree looks like branches that
always return to the trunk. To put this into CVS, he had to choose a
line of those branches that contained the _most_ changesets (which
doesn't always equate to the most important, or largest deltas). There
are some changesets on the side that are not included here. Are all of
those changesets empty merges? No.
