Comment:
The code that renames the repository does not check whether the "*-branch- failed" name already exists. It should do something clever in this case.
The error message should also indicate that the repository was renamed. In the case of a git repository, many symlinks will now be broken.
The code for git repositories contains a "cd ..", while the code for hg repositories does not. Is that intentional?
