I found this out and was very happy...

That said, I would be (a bit) unhappy when the branch
information were lost for ZEO. My "CVS" working directory
(which now contains Zope and ZEO from the 2.7 branch)
would probably have some difficulties to update after the
branch information is lost.

It would not be a big problem, though, if I learn that
it happened...
