To test a given branch, you can simply check out the entire branch, like so::
svn co http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/branches/<branch>/
Or, if you've got a working directory you'd like to switch to use a branch,
you can use::
svn switch http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/branches/<branch>/
...in the root of your Django sandbox (the directory that contains ``django``,
``docs``, and ``tests``).

``switch`` command retains any changes you might have made to your local copy
of the code. It attempts to merge those changes into the "switched" code.
