Using hooks, this plugin supports external branches for these commands:

• branch
• checkout
• commit
• pull
• push
• update.

Works from any client including bzr, QBzr, TortoiseBzr and Bazaar Explorer.
To begin work with external branches please see bzr help externals-add.

This plugin also provides a command to execute an arbitrary bzr or shell
command for each branch in the local workspace, see also
bzr help externals-command.

Works with snapshot external branches only for branch/checkout command with
revision options. The snapshot becomes at commit in the main project.

Known issues:

• Does not support ^/ expression in relative urls.
• pull command does not overwrite your newer working tree if you use a custom
  revision.
• update command does not support a custom revision and does not check
  externals if the branch tip is not changed.
• Does not support lightweight checkout.
• qcommit command does not support external snapshots via hooks, instead of it
  use ecmd qcommit or simple commit commands.
