Summary
Friendly distributed version control system
Description
================= README for Bazaar =================
Bazaar (bzr) is a decentralized revision control system, designed to be
easy for developers and end users alike. Bazaar is part of the GNU project to
develop a complete free operating system http://www.gnu.org/, and a project
of Canonical http://www.canonical.com/.
Ready-to-install packages are available for most popular operating systems from http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/Download/ or you can install from source by following the instructions in the INSTALL file.
To learn how to use Bazaar, see the official documentation in the doc
directory or at http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/en/.

Bazaar is Free Software, and is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later.
Bazaar highlights
Bazaar directly supports both central version control (like cvs/svn) and distributed version control (like git/hg). Developers can organize their workspace in whichever way they want on a per project basis including:
- checkouts (like svn)
- feature branches (like hg)
- shared working tree (like git).
It also directly supports and encourages a large number of development best practices like refactoring and pre-commit regression testing. Users can choose between our command line tool and our cross-platform GUI application. For further details, see our website at http://bazaar.canonical.com/en/
