Why not put the two xyz.c's into .master/ and .branchX/ as well (surely, 
the source files are small compared to the object files)? And just to make 
sure, the Makefile, too (some Makefile targets depend on the timestamp of 
this, too).

And to make sure that if we're switching to a third branch, let's put the 
files there, even when the side branch does not change them, otherwise 
A->B->C->A might fail.

And while at it, we could put the information about which branch this is 
into the corresponding directories, too! Otherwise, we could rename the 
directory by mistake, and the system would stop working.

And the corresponding refs. They could be there, too.

Hth,
Dscho

P.S.: Google for the complicator's gloves.
