I tried a straight bzr branch just to see how long it would take: bzr branch sftp://bzr.sv.gnu.org/srv/bzr/emacs/emacs-merges/master It finished in about 10 minutes, but files are missing. In the roo
It didn't signal any error? Looks like a bug in bzr. My attempt took several hours. I don't think so. IIUC the emacs-merges thingy is based on the Git mirror. I believe the HTTP address looks like h
EDE has several kinds of projects it knows how to deal with. As one piece in the whole, its job is to help other tools find source code, and to define boundaries between sourcecode. ie, some file bel
Logs for some big trees can be huge, the Linux one is millions of lines. It would be nice if C-x v l could limit the number of items displayed because it takes too long to compute, and very seldom an
I realize that your question is just an example of something that you want to see documented (the answer is that "it depends": if you are working on a checkout of the global repository, the yes, the
Because I don't know how experienced you are with Bazaar yet, I don't know if you're using the word "repository" in the CVS sense or in the Bazaar sense, above. The two meanings are very different.
I know rather less than Karl about bzr, but I'm one of the ones who would be using lightweight checkouts from a local repository, so I'll have a shot: I'm asking about how to use lightweight checkou
I have no idea what you're referring to. We all know that Texinfo is not as sexy as HTML and has its share of shortcomings, but it does its job fairly well and has several features still mostly unma
I haven't given DVCS integration much thought at this point, though I've recently contacted Jonas Bernoulli who seems to have done some experiments with it. The initial idea was to just add "Emacs pa

For something like that you could use git-filter-branch and probably the equivalent in bzr (there *is* an equivalent, but I think it requires converting to fastimport format to use). To avoid the reb

I didn't claim that you *have* to do a pledge of allegiance to contribute to Emacs. I claim that in practice it is those who have a strong loyalty to Emacs who do contribute, because the costs of con
Rather than supporting installing straight out of a VC repository, I have opted to make it easy to create an archive from a list of VC repositories. (package-maint.el) The idea is that only releases
OK. See below about file:/// URLs. Understood. The TODO list has more important items, I agree. Great, thanks! How about associating a single install location with each repository? Logically that wou
Yes, it works with t-m-mode. But there is no reason to have t-m-mode or an active region, to be able to do that. The example uses nothing about t-m-mode. That is straight, classic behavior for a non
