'fraid so.  Locally I have shared repositories with one bound branch as
a mirror branch and then local feature branches.  The only structural
difference is that one of the bound branches binds to a Git repository
and the other to a Subversion repository.

Of course the Git bound branch is now "buggered" in that it refuses to
do an update, so I have had to give up on bzr-git and use real Git :-(
