WE need support to merge colocated branches

[Spundun]

Am I missing something? merge not supported for colocated branches?

spundun@ubuntu:/tmp$ mkdir A && cd A
spundun@ubuntu:/tmp/A$ bzr init --development-colo
Created a standalone tree (format: development-colo)
spundun@ubuntu:/tmp/A$ touch a && bzr add a && bzr commit -m A

Committed revision 1.
spundun@ubuntu:/tmp/A$ bzr switch -b br1

Switched to branch: /tmp/A/
spundun@ubuntu:/tmp/A$ bzr switch -b br2

This ... works... :/ So I have a workaround. It'd be nice to be able to work with just on working directory though.

Don't be confused byt the output of the first ls
spundun@ubuntu:/tmp/A$ ls
a b B

That was a mistake, I was playing around a bit and I didn't paste the output correctly, it should read
spundun@ubuntu:/tmp/A$ ls
a b

try "bzr merge co:br2"

[Spundun (spundun)]

Yes! That worked!

Thank you !
