All revisions are there. bzr: ERROR: unknown command "qlog" I think what you are trying to explain is that bzr's history is full of confusing non-linear parallel universes. 24.2 never existed on the trunk as far as history of this universe goes - it was made on a branch. But DVCS adherents want the possibility of an alternate universe where 24.2 is on the history of the trunk. The benefit of this non-linearity is not at all clear to me.
