Changing branch stacking

------------------------

91
 
Stacking of existing branches can be changed using the ``bzr reconfigure``
92
 
command to either stack on an existing branch, or to turn off stacking.
93
 
Be aware that when ``bzr reconfigure --unstacked`` is used, bzr will
94
 
copy all the referenced data from the stacked-on repository into the
95
 
previously stacked repository.  For large repositories this may take
96
 
considerable time and may substantially increase the size of the
97
 
repository.
