Skip, you can use Bazaar essential the same way you use Subversion but doing
what's called a "lightweight checkout". Just do:
$ bzr co lp:python-mode
Then, 'bzr commit' in the python-mode directory will do exactly like 'svn
commit' in that it will immediately change the state of the branch on the
server, so you need to be on the net, and your local working directory needs
to be up-to-date.
