What you see is the output of a built-in "branches" command, not the
one provided by the bzrtools plugin.

To get what you want, either use "bzr branches -R" or "bzr list-branches".
(The latter is the "real" name of the command from bzrtools;
"branches" is just its alias, but it is disabled in latest bzr versions,
because there's a built-in "branches" command with a slightly different
semantics.)

You should invoke both commands from the repository directory, not from
a branch under it.

Please be patient: this command is quite slow.  E.g., in the Emacs repo
it took almost 7 minutes, and produced a list of more than 50 branches.
