The other way around, a repository has a (search) list of branches, a
branch has a branch point type, and branch point data.
E.g
main latest;
my_branch tag : "before_experiment3";
You may want to parameterize this so you can control the tag from the
command line, and write:
my_branch tag : $tag.experiment;
The branch point types are:
Latest
Tag
Revision
Timestamp

Do you mean something like:
branch ::= <branch name> <branch point type> [ ":" <branch point data>]
If so, I find it very confusing. IMHO it should be more like:
branch ::= <branch name>
<branch point> ::= <branch> <branch point type> [ ":" <branch point data>]
But I may not get the intent of all this correctly because in CDO we
also have branch and branch point concepts, where a branch point really
is a "point (in time) of a branch" ;-)

Agree
In the current b3 model, the class is called Branch, it is really a
BranchPoint, because it has branch name, bp type and bp data as
features.

So should we rename it to branch-points ?

The other way around, a repository has a (search) list of branches, a
branch has a branch point type, and branch point data.
E.g
main latest;
my_branch tag : "before_experiment3";
You may want to parameterize this so you can control the tag from the
command line, and write:
my_branch tag : $tag.experiment;
The branch point types are:
Latest
Tag
Revision
Timestamp

Agree
In the current b3 model, the class is called Branch, it is really a
BranchPoint, because it has branch name, bp type and bp data as
features.
