A quick question:

suppose I am managing a huge directory using bzr, and history is much
bigger than the actual project, so I am running out of disk space due to
version control. Then, I can copy the whole directory (including .bzr)
to a back up medium, delete it from the disk, and create a stacked
branch on top of the back up. Will this work? Will I be able to merge
the stacked branch to the back up medium at a second time? And what if
the back up storage is not available and I ask for an old file? 

Thank you 

Vincenzo
