+It is possible to push changes to Subversion without
+setting that metadata by using the ``bzr dpush`` command. 
+Since revisions created in Subversion this way are actually (slightly) different 
+from the matching revisions in the local branch, it is necessary for the dpush command 
+to rebase your branch to the remote branch after pushing.

 You would get a DivergedBranches error when pulling from a svn branch you have 
 just pushed to.
