Centralized development
2
=======================
7
Rather than working in parallel and occasionally merging, it can be
8
useful at times to work in lockstep, i.e. for multiple people to
9
be continuously committing changes to a central location, merging
10
their work with the latest content before every commit.
12
This workflow is very familiar to users of central VCS tools like
13
Subversion and CVS. It is also applicable to a single developer
14
who works on multiple machines, e.g. someone who normally works
15
on a desktop computer but travels with a laptop, or someone who
16
uses their (Internet connected) home computer to complete office
19
If centralized development works well for your team already, that's
20
great. Many teams begin using Bazaar this way and experiment with
21
alternative workflows later.

The diagram below provides an overview of the *centralized workflow*.

Even if your team is planning to use a more distributed workflow, many
31
of the tasks covered in this chapter may be useful to you, particularly
32
how to publish branches.
