Git ids hare 40-char "random" strings, but they are hashes, so they
vary from the start, and most of the time you get around by typing
just 6 to 8 chars. Bazaar ids are longer (14 char timestamps + 16 char
random string + 2 separators + e-mail, so longer unless the e-mail is
shorter than 8 chars) and for a given year and user, the first
significant character is at (length e-mail) + 5... but even if the
random string were at the start would still be irrelevant because the
Bazaar interface doesn't allow shortening revids. You have to type
them in full.
If they allowed passing just the random-string part it would be a bit
easier. As it is, you always have to type long strings, or cut&paste
them.
