OK, I see. Sorry, since I've only used the Subversion adapter I didn't know 
about this. (Branches (and tags) in Subversion are simply copies of files in 
an arbitrary other part of the repository namespace, so the Subversion 
adapter doesn't have to explicitly deal with branches.)

As far as I can see, this branch name behaviour is nailed into 
UrbanCodeVersionAdapter - see the check at line 128. I think your only option 
will be to do your own version adapter that knows about your convention.
