Here’s one discussion here: [Calling branches "branches" is misleading](https://discourse.pijul.org/t/calling-branches-branches-is-misleading/276)

And on Zulip:  
[pijul channels vs. git branches](https://pijul.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/270693-general/topic/.E2.9C.94.20pijul.20channels.20vs.20git.20branches)  
[Getting all the changes in a channel?](https://pijul.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/270693-general/topic/Getting.20all.20the.20changes.20in.20a.20channel.3F)  
[branching](https://pijul.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/270693-general/topic/branching)  
[branches and channels and unrecord](https://pijul.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/270693-general/topic/branches.20and.20channels.20and.20unrecord)

Your draft is okay for the manual, but it’s the help text that I think is more important. Of course, Git and Bazaar both have extensive help text, so Pijul could also. No need for a manual then.
