Yep; what they mean by that is you typically just clone the existing 
repository (either from your local working copy or the central repo) and do 
your "branch" work there.  You can later merge all the changes from the 
working copy into your "branch" and commit the series back in without any 
special branching commands.

That given, Mercurial also supports the regular branching and tagging concepts 
where you branch inside a single working copy, so there are multiple ways of 
going about this problem.
