Yes, it came fom my library `emacsbug+.el'.
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/download/emacsbug%2b.el
It does this:
(insert "\n\nIn " (emacs-version) "\n")
(when (and (boundp 'emacs-bzr-version) (stringp emacs-bzr-version))
(insert "Bzr revision: " emacs-bzr-version "\n"))
Which is exactly what vanilla Emacs did too, a couple of years
ago. I just had not updated my library to use the renamed label,
`Repository version:'. I've done that now, so this scandalous
problem should no longer plague you.
In any case, my code does not define or set `emacs-bzr-version'.
,----
| emacs-bzr-version is a variable defined in `emacsbug+.el'.
| Its value is nil
|
| This variable is an alias for `emacs-repository-version'.
| This variable is obsolete since 24.4;
| use `emacs-repository-version' instead.
|
| Documentation:
| String giving the repository revision from which this Emacs was built.
| Value is nil if Emacs was not built from a repository checkout,
| or if we could not determine the revision.
`----
My code uses the old name of this variable because it works,
including across multiple Emacs versions.
Naturally, I proposed the little that `emacsbugs+.el' does to
Emacs Dev for `emacsbug.el'. Naturally, there was no interest.
What does it do? It just lets users choose which fields to
include by default in a bug report. What Emacs does with a
monolithic `report-emacs-bug', this library does with a modular
`report-emacs-bug'. That's all. Not a biggee.
User option `ebp-report-emacs-bug-included-fields':
(defcustom ebp-report-emacs-bug-included-fields
'(version settings major-mode minor-modes recent-input
recent-messages load-shadows features)
"Fields to include by default for command `report-emacs-bug'.
The fields are included automatically in the buffer where you edit
your bug report."
:type '(set
(const :tag "Emacs version info" version)
(const :tag "Important settings" settings)
(const :tag "Major mode" major-mode)
(const :tag "Minor modes" minor-modes)
(const :tag "Recent input" recent-input)
(const :tag "Recent messages" recent-messages)
(const :tag "Load-path shadows" load-shadows)
(const :tag "Features" features))
:group 'emacsbug-plus :group 'convenience)
For my own purposes, I use the value `(version)': report just
the version info, by default.
There are also commands to insert all or any of the fields.
To insert recent input, for example, you can use command
`edp-insert-recent-input'.
