The new text says:
your branch changes. So in this special case, you would merge

+ URL:</para>
How is this a "special case"? As far as I can tell, all examples of
--reintegrate in ch04 are using it in the context of merging a feature
branch to trunk. Why, then, does this instance of --reintegrate need a
peg, while the first instance of --reintegrate in the chapter does not
use a peg?
Thanks,
Daniel
