I just wanted to give you heads up.  Merging code is not fun for me, so I 
assumed it would
not be fun for you.

Hopefully BZR does most of the hard work.  In general I find it is better not 
to diverge
too far however, since that usually means less manual work.  Of course by "not 
diverging
too far", this means coming back to a common repo with commits and merges on a 
smaller
changes, frequent commits, basis.


My message is not specific to this repo, and this is why I am posting this.  I 
can
remember last year how a developer thought he'd go off and rewrite PCB, with a 
view to
merge all this code back into our tree in one big commit.  It never happened, 
because it
was not coming to us in bite sized, digestible chunks.
