+### NOTE: The immediate children of the branches/ directory in this ###
+### repository are not themselves copies of the trunk/. Rather, they ###
+### are placeholders for individual translations which themselves may ###
+### or may not be copies of other translations. ###
+
+If you wish to create a new translation branch, do the following:
+
+1. If there's no version collection directory ^/branches/X.Y for
+ your translation, create one:
+
+ svn mkdir ^/branches/X.Y \
+ -m "Create collection directory for version X.Y translations"
+
+ You'll want to initialize also the "tools" subdirectory of that
+ new version collection, too:
+
+ svn cp ^/trunk/tools ^/branches/X.Y/tools \
+ -m "Make a copy of the latest tools for X.Y translations."
+
+2. Initialize your translation. You might do this by copying the
+ appropriate English version:
+
+ svn cp ^/trunk/en ^/branches/X.Y/LOCALE \
+ -m "Initialize LOCALE translation as a copy of the English"
+
+ You might also use other sources for your translation, such as the
+ previous version of your translation, or a clean import of new
+ sources, etc.
