***********************************
Release notes for Bazaar-NG (pre-0)
***********************************

mbp@sourcefrog.net, March 2005, Canberra



Caveats
-------


* There is little locking or transaction control here; if you
  interrupt it the tree may be arbitrarily broken.  This will be
  fixed.

* Don't use this for critical data; at the very least keep separate
  regular snapshots of your tree.


Dependencies
------------

This is mostly developed on Linux (Ubuntu); it should work on Unix,
Windows, or OS X with relatively little trouble.

bzr requires a fairly recent Python, say after 2.2.  2.4 is recommended.

You must install either cElementTree_ or ElementTree_ first.

.. _ElementTree: http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm



Installation
------------

bzr has a standard python ``setup.py`` script.  

To install it system-wide::

  # python ./setup.py install

Alternatively you can simply put the source directory on $PYTHONPATH
and $PATH.
