* There is little locking or transaction control here; if you

interrupt it the tree may be arbitrarily broken. This will be

This is mostly developed on Linux (Ubuntu); it should work on Unix,
22
18
Windows, or OS X with relatively little trouble.
24
The only dependency is Python, at least 2.3 and preferably 2.4.
26
You may optionally install cElementTree to speed up some operations.
27
This is strongly recommended if you are dealing with large trees.

This package includes copies of two Python libraries, elementtree and
32
If you are building .deb or .rpm packages for bzr, please don't
33
include these libraries but instead package them separately and depend
40
The best way to install bzr is to symlink the ``bzr`` command onto a
41
directory on your path. For example::
43
ln -s ~/work/bzr/bzr ~/bin/bzr

find the bzr libraries. Otherwise you must ensure they are listed on

After installing, please run the test suite to identify any problems
54
If you use the setup.py script then bzr will be installed into the
55
specified path. In this case you must install ElementTree and
56
urlgrabber separately.
20
bzr requires a fairly recent Python, say after 2.2.
22
You can improve performance by installing Fredrik Lundh's amazing
23
cElementTree__ module.
