Veering off into another topic:
Somewhat related to this is the irritation that you can't SEE what rev
the working tree is at. The closest you can get is to guess by doing
a bunch of math from the 'info' output (though even that doesn't help
you if you're not at a rev on the mainline), and 'revno' helpfully
tells you the branch head number, which is totally misleading.
Of course, that also ties into "You can't 'update -r' a working tree";
all you can do is revert, and that causes all sorts of troubles (try
it: "bzr branch bzr.dev tmp; cd tmp; bzr revert -r500; bzr revert
-r-1"; blech!)...
