At UBZ, we found it useful to break the concept of centralized
development into two concepts:

1. lock-step development, in which people all work on the same branch
and cannot commit unless they are up to date.  Bound branches and
checkouts address this.

2. centralized storage, in which long-term storage is centralized,
making it cheap and easy to publish a set of branches, making it
possible to ensure that all branches are published, reducing storage
requirements, allowing the working trees of finished/archival branches
to be deleted.  Repositories address this.
