I don't see anything about the added meaning here, for example: http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/bzr.2.0/en/user-guide/core_concept= s.html (which ironically enough says that the revision-ids are an internal detail that is not important to users). > I was skimming the Internet for a while and found no docs that expl= ained > the concepts without focusing on specific approaches from other too= ls > like git or mercurial. That could only mislead the Bazaar beginner. Please mislead me. I read confusing prose for the living, so please do show those places, or at least suggest keywords for a Google search. Thanks.
