I believe Bzr is running on Savannah tho not fully supported.
Could someone see if it is feasible to put Emacs into Bzr there?

Sorry in case I missed some important threads on this issue, but is the
decision on what DSCM to choose already made and if so why was bzr
(bazaar) chosen?
I have a vague memory that it was said, that bzr might become a part of
GNU, but as far as I can see, it isn't yet.
cheers

AFAIK we are still waiting for the paper that ESR promised on this
topic.

FWIW, no discussion on that has happened in that last month. Let me
see if he's committed any changes ... no.
Maybe he moved development to a different repo ... but if you're
waiting on Eric, you probably should get in direct touch with him.

Bzr is now a GNU package, though it has not been updated to reflect
that. It is most unlikely that git or Mercurial will be GNU packages.
Thus, unless Bzr is unsuitable, we should use Bzr.
We've seen enough to know that each has its advantages but all are
workable. So we should use Bzr. And if there are aspects of it which
prove inconvenient, we can ask the Maintainer of Bzr to improve them.

I've seen no evidence that bzr would be unsuitable, unless it's too slow
on the Emacs source-base. Obviously setting up an Emacs bzr repository
is a good way to find out about that. :-)
It'd be good to have a bzr client installed on fencepost, but the
version shown by apt-get (fencepost seems to be running ubuntu) is
_wildly_ out of date (like 2 years old), so I dunno the best way to go
about that. I get the feeling the fencepost admins don't do "apt-get
update" very often... [I prefer not to install software in ~/bin if
it's likely other people will want to use it.]

I pull from it occasionally and it seems to work pretty well, but I do
most of my work using arch/CVS.

Don't know about bzr and arch, but Git is really easy to use and
works pretty well. I will try to see how cvsimport'ing it into
git works.

Well, I'm only doing `bzr pull', and it seems indeed to be more
responsive than previously. However, the amount of data transferred
by bzr is still excessively large. For example, updating from
rev. 101894 (Oct. 10th) to today's rev. 101979 (with `bzr pull') used
more than 20MByte! Looking at the amount of changes actually applied
to the repository, I estimate that git would need only approx. 200 to
300kByte ^[$(Q#|^[(B this is 70 to 100 times less...
It would be great if someone using an emacs git repository could
verify my estimation.
git compresses the data on the remote side before transferring it.
Does bzr omit that step? Maybe I'm missing a bzr option? Otherwise,
it looks like a severe flaw in the design. Given that many users
(including me currently) use mobile internet connections which are
sometimes extremely slow due to weak signal strength, bandwidth *is*
an issue even today.

I forgot to mention that I'm currently using bzr version 2.0.5 in case
this makes a difference w.r.t. the amount of transferred data.

It is significantly faster, especially with frequent updates. Where
previously I had to wait up to 5-6 minutes for an update of 3-4 days
worth of development, now it's down to 1-2 minutes or so, depending on
the amount of files that were modified. Where previously it took 2
minutes to update a few files that were modified during several hours
since the last update, it now takes 25 seconds. Previously it would
take about 40 seconds to get the "tree is up to date" result; now it
takes 10 to 15.
This is with a 3.5Mbps link, with other jobs running on the same
machine and using the link simultaneously.
I don't remember the exact timings of CVS, but I think the numbers are
comparable, perhaps even slightly faster.

These questions are better sent to the Bazaar list
(bazaar@lists.canonical.com), where the Bazaar developers can give
definitive answers to them.

I doubt that: I have Bazaar 2.2.1, and the combined size of the data
between Oct 10 and yesterday was 19MB or me.

Well, I'm only doing `bzr pull', and it seems indeed to be more
responsive than previously. However, the amount of data transferred
by bzr is still excessively large. For example, updating from
rev. 101894 (Oct. 10th) to today's rev. 101979 (with `bzr pull') used
more than 20MByte! Looking at the amount of changes actually applied
to the repository, I estimate that git would need only approx. 200 to
300kByte this is 70 to 100 times less...
It would be great if someone using an emacs git repository could
verify my estimation.
It would be interesting to set up parallel repositories, the latest
bzr and git, and update them at the same times. Then it would be
possible to rigorously compare the amount of data transferred.
git compresses the data on the remote side before transferring it.
Does bzr omit that step? Maybe I'm missing a bzr option?
It might be that the compression occurs in scp, and you're measuring
the amount of raw data rather than the amount actually transmitted.
But that's just a speculation. It would be interesting to find out
for certain.

It is much improved and personally I find it satisfactory now, yes.

PS that comment was about basic bzr functionality. One service that
Savannah still does not provide is the ability to browse bzr
repositories via the web. The service that provides this is called
"Loggerhead", analogous to "ViewVC" for CVS repositories.
Several GNU projects have asked Savannah to implement this over many
months. Since roughly the start of the year, attempting to browse the
relevant page on Savannah simply reports:
http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/emacs
"loggerhead disabled due to instability; if you're interesting in
maintaining it, please contact us"
This issue is not as important as the sftp one was, but I think it is
important for Savannah to provide this service for Bzr repositories,
as it seems to do for every other version control system it supports.
This is the last gap in their bzr support that I can think of.

Correction: now it reports: "HTTP 404 - File not found".

Yes, I agree. I posted a request to the Savannah list to fix this
up. Perhaps Richard's word will give this a boost.

I still get the first form (not that it matters much either way).

Savannah still does not provide is the ability to browse bzr
repositories via the web. The service that provides this is called
"Loggerhead", analogous to "ViewVC" for CVS repositories.
We need someone to volunteer to help Savannah and do this.
Would someone like to step forward?
Since roughly the start of the year, attempting to browse the
relevant page on Savannah simply reports:
http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/emacs
"loggerhead disabled due to instability;
What happened before then? Did it work?
Or did it fail some other way?

I think maybe it did work at some point, but it was almost a year ago
so I can't remember.
