1. With or without a 1.2 branch checkout, can I do a trunk commit and have it be applied to the 1.2 branch also?

if not,

2. Without a 1.2 branch checkout, can I do a 1.2 branch commit using my trunk working copy?

I think the "switch" command is how you, uh, do it. Like, if you have a trunk checkout, you can use switch to switch it to be a 1.2 checkout. At least that's what I did, and it worked.

Yes, "switch" makes your working copy use another branch. However, there is no way to automatically apply a change to both branches at the same time.

You will either have to have two checkouts and apply the change to both of them or you have one checkout, apply the change, switch to the other, then apply again.

It looks like isaac has been take care of merging 1.3 changes into 1.2. Thanks! I will try to take care of it myself from now on.
