Fungrim entry: 96f695

Symbol: ComplexBranchDerivative ddzf ⁣(z)\frac{d}{d z}\, f\!\left(z\right) Complex derivative, allowing branch cuts
The call syntax for this operator is the same as for Derivative.
This operator is equivalent to ComplexDerivative except that whereas ComplexDerivative is undefined on a branch cut (where the function is not complex differentiable), ComplexBranchDerivative gives the complex derivative of the analytically continued function across the branch cut.
