when there exist other working trees, except that the commits, branches
and other VC artifacts they create will be visible from all working
trees. Another way to put this is that any action taken in any working
tree which creates new artefacts in the VCS backing store will be
visible from other working trees, but actions which only affect
workfiles won't be. So if you apply a patch to some workfiles in one
working tree, that only affects that working tree. But if you commit
the changes made by applying the patch, then that creates a new revision
in the backing store, and so this action affects other working trees in
the sense that their view of the repository's history will now have an
additional commit in it.
The following special commands let you switch between and modify
different working trees. It is an error to use them other than from
