Another thing I noticed when applying a New Framework in a Template Branch.
This instance being applying the latest Shadows v10.04.00 to a copy of a Production (Primary) Branch using a modified version of Suivant. I'm sure this is true for any instance though.
Settings > Store Settings > Customer Fields
All of these setting will change to whatever the framework defaults to.
Luckily I checked this before applying the framework since our store uses the billing address as the primary address.
Another thing to take note of are all of your Image Machine sizes within the page templates that use the Image Machine as well as the search preview setting.
These will all change as they are branch specific as well.
If you don't want to overload your server with new images that arent being used on the live site, then you may want to adjust these to match your current Production (Primary) Branch image sizes BEFORE you start previewing the New Template Branch.
Maybe write a list, make a spreadsheet, or word doc with each Page Template Code and the new image sizes that were overwritten by the new framework. In Case you want to migrate your original image sizes to the new image sizes later on when you're ready to make the New Branch the Primary Branch. Just an idea.
