The old - method created a new set at every merge point, which was wasteful - when the merge did not introduce new revisions. - (John Arbash Meinel) + * ``bzr log file`` has been changed. It now uses a different method + for determining which revisions to show as merging the changes to + the file. It now only shows revisions which merged the change + towards your mainline. (The old one would also show revisions which + then merged your mainline back, and got the new change.) This + simplifies the output, makes it faster, and reduces memory + consumption.
