This should only change semantics in the specific case of a tag/branch conflict where the tag wasn't done on the branch with the same name. Previously, branch(whatever) would resolve to the branch of the tag in that case, whereas now it will resolve to the branch of the name. The previous behaviour, while documented, seemed very counter-intuitive to me. An alternate approach would be to introduce a new revset such as branchname() or namedbranch(). While this would retain backwards compatibility, the distinction between it and branch() would not be readily apparent to users. The most intuitive behaviour would be to have branch(x) require 'x' to be a branch name, and something like branchof(x) or samebranch(x) do what branch(x) currently does. Unfortunately, our backwards compatibility guarantees prevent us from doing that. Please note that while 'hg tag' guards against shadowing a branch, 'hg branch' does not. Besides, even if it did, that wouldn't solve the issue of conversions with such tags and branches...
