Correct. It does the change in memory locally, verifies that nothing has
been lost, and then uses atomic put to update the remote index. So in
the worst case, if your network dropped out in the middle, you might end
up with an extra temp file in the remote repository.

Well, it opens a branch so that it can find the repository. I suppose
the other possibility would be to use:

bzrdir = bzrdir.BzrDir.open(location)
repo = bzrdir.BzrDir.find_repository()

The problem is that I wanted to be able to just run it from the current
working directory, but you don't have a repository there. I guess it
could be:
        if location is None:
            a_bzrdir = bzrdir.BzrDir.open_containing('.')[0]
        else:
            a_bzrdir = bzrdir.BzrDir.open(location)
        repo = bzrdir.find_repository()

Would that work for you?
