Not really.  This is a function that gets the working tree of the
branch.  But now, a branch may have many working trees, and you may get
the wrong one.  E.g.

~/my/standalone/branch
~/my/checkout/of/standalone/branch

If you do
Branch.open_containing('~/my/checkout/of/standalone/branch').working_tree()
you get the ~/my/standalone/branch tree.

So the function is deprecated because it's the Wrong Thing to do.  You
should start with WorkingTree.open_containing(), not
Branch.open_containing().

Yes.
