I myself am quite partial to bzr espeically since tortoise-bzr uses my favorite diff tool by default

http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/explorer/en/guide/qbzr/qdiff...

I would be interested to know about other's impressions of bazaar and why most people seem to share the same sentiment towards it as those at pycon that year

While no one said they did not want bzr chosen, no one said they did either.



I have been using bzr for 2+ years now. For personal projects I am quite happy with bzr+launchpad. At work, we have been using bzr on Linux.

The move from 1.x to 2.x brought in significant performance and memory improvements.


I did detailed evaluation of bzr, git, hg and svn. And found bzr to be good too (at least equally good). Most comparisons I found online have been too old to be using older version of bzr which was very slow in comparison.

I am still unclear on the impact of a "branch" being the key concept in bzr as opposed to "repository" in git/hg.

Git's support on Windows has improved considerably (although I could not find a good GUI). So I rather find not much reason to use Hg!
