Bzr

Why use the Bazaar plugin

The Bazaar plugin is useful if you would like to track changes to your bcfg2 repository using a Bazaar backend. Currently, it enables you to get revision information out of your repository for reporting purposes. Future plans are to commit changes to the repo which are made by the server.

How to enable the Bazaar plugin

Simply add “Bzr” to your plugins line in /etc/bcfg2.conf:

[server]
plugins = Bundler,Cfg,...,Bzr

Usage notes

Unlike other VCS plugins for Bcfg2, the Bazaar plugin checks whether there are uncommitted changes to the repository. If there are, this plugin appends a “+” after the version number. Essentially, this means you’re using that version, “plus” some changes.
