I'm glad you like.

Oh, you're using cbranch with heavyweight checkouts?  This isn't
something I've tried.

I would rather set the parent, because if we set the submit location,
that means 'bundle' won't auto-remember the first submit location we
specify.

     b_loc = pathjoin(b_root, basename(to_location))
     cmd_branch().run(from_location, b_loc, revision=revision)
     cmd_checkout().run(b_loc, to_location, lightweight=lightweight)

+    b.set_submit_location(from_location)

Should we be canonicalizing from_location?
