[Bug 925322] Re: Improving Merging page
There are other pages in the packaging guide that talk about some of
these things, e.g.
http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/getting-set-up.html
and
http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/udd-getting-the-source.html
I'm not sure how much of a bzr tutorial the packaging guide should
include but if the above isn't enough, then perhaps we need a link to
the Bazaar documentation.

Title:
Improving Merging page
Status in Ubuntu Packaging Guide:
New
Bug description:
I've done merges with grab-merge for previous cycle and I tried to
make a merge following this guide:
http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/udd-merging.html
IMHO it's too brief in bzr commands since the user of that page may be
newcomers starting learning packaging through Merges and Syncs.
Info I missed in this page:
* How to login with bzr
* How to grab the Ubuntu package sources
* A better explanation of commands "status" "diff" "resolve" "conflicts"
I found the old guide and the infos you get with grab-merge much more
communicative. I didn't answer myself about how to see differences
between debian-base and ubuntu-base. Also the infos about how to
request a sponsoring should be improved, I hadn't complete the process
so I can't help about what's missing right now.
Thanks in advance
