Rather than removing the option, we could actually re-activate the
functionality. 'bzr branch' supports --basis, and checkout is very
similar to 'bzr branch'. It does a few things differently (creates a
branch, and then does 'bind' which does a pull, versus doing 'sprout').

But honestly, we could do a standard sprout, and then do the bind.

If someone knows how to use --basis, it seems like a decent performance
improvement to not have to copy everything from the remote location.
