Bug Description
I have recently started using Bazaar explorer and have run into an interesting problem.
All work i do follows a specific naming convention, with the name of the project at the top of the tree with major versions below that and minor versions below that, for e.g.
Project 1
+ 1
| - 0
| - 1
Project 2
+ 1
| - 0
| - 1
+ 2
| - 0
If i create a branch at the place i want to work from, for example project2/2/0, bazaar explorer calls it '0'. If i then create a new branch for work on project1/1/0, bazaar explorer calls that one '0', which naturally causes confusion.
Is there a way to explicitly name these projects / branches / locations that explorer keeps track of?
The suggested solution was to set a branch nickname, however this is not shown in the bazaar explorer UI.
It may be worth considering allowing the user to provide their own name in the explorer UI, neatly side stepping this issue.
