To put another way

If you use "bzr branch" then to get the latest version from launchpad,
you need to do "bzr pull".

If you wanted a checkout, then you could have done "bzr checkout lp..."
and then "bzr update" would pull in the latest version from tip.

Arguably we could check if

1) The tree is already 'up-to-date'
2) And the tree is colocated with its branch
3) And then mention that what you may have meant was 'bzr pull'
