What is the purpose of the -Dbranch option? All branches should be named
differently, so this option should not be necessary. If the branch has a
standard name and is stored in the standard location, the build knows where to
look. If the branch does not have a standard name or is not in the standard
location, simply add the module name and location to registry.txt and the build
will know where to look. The only limitation is that you cannot have a branch
with the exact same name. But, that limitation is a feature, not a bug.

In my view, this bug should be eliminated by removing the -Dbranch option from
the change-to command.
