Hi, After a long gestation we've released Bazaar 1.6rc1. Although this release has many other improvements, it's main focus is adding 'branch --stacked' support to help Launchpad. So the Bazaar developers would appreciate very much if you'd install it from the PPA, try it out, and report success or problems. Stacked branches store only part of their history, and refer to another branch in a different location for the rest of it. This lets you much more quickly upload a new branch to Launchpad that's based on something already there, or create a new branch backed by Launchpad. (It's not Launchpad-specific, this is just one case where we think people will want to use it.) For more information, see <http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/bzr.1.6/en/user-guide/index.html#using-stacked-branches> Support for this is either already active on staging.launchpad.net or soon will be. It should be active on the production Launchpad site in the next release. In the meantime you can try the feature locally, and we'd very much appreciate if you would test other aspects of this release and let us know. (You can report problems here if they're Launchpad-related, on #bzr, bazaar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, or through the bug or answer tracker.) Thanks, -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/> -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/>
