Its commands work with several different version control systems; currently, it supports GNU Arch, Bazaar, [...]" and (32.1.6 VC Directory Mode): "The VC Directory buffer works with all the version control systems that VC supports." But when I type `C-x v d' (vc-dir) and at the prompt enter the directory of my bzr Emacs trunk tree, all I get is this: =============== VC backend : Bzr Working dir: /data/steve/bzr/emacs/trunk/ Parent branch : http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/emacs/trunk/ Shelves : No shelved changes ./ =============== No files are listed, although the parent branch contains changes against my working directory. And when I type `+' (vc-update), all I get is the message from vc-call-backend: "Sorry, merge-news is not implemented for Bzr". (I don't understand the message; I thought I was invoking update, not merge or merge-news, whatever that is.) So does vc-dir not work with bzr, contrary to the manual, or do I need to do something else? I have no problem using bzr from the command line, updating the trunk, merging, etc. This is with Bazaar (bzr) 2.1.0 Python interpreter: /usr/bin/python 2.6.2 Python standard library: /usr/lib/python2.6 Platform: Linux-2.6.31.12-0.2-default-i686-athlon-with-SuSE-11.2-i586 bzrlib: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/bzrlib Bazaar configuration: /home/steve/.bazaar Bazaar log file: /home/steve/.bzr.log and GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.6) of 2010-07-18 on escher I'd be grateful for any help.
