  A crontab running "for i in /scmrepos/bzr/deb-packaging/upstream/* ;
do cd $i ; bzr pull ; done" four times an hour.

  They're stored in the same repository, there's no real duplication.
If you want to share revision information on your local disk too, you
can "bzr init-repository $HOME".

  Just commit and push/pull/merge.  Or, even easier, you can "bzr
checkout $URL" and then you can update/commit just like in SVN.

  For merging, you can "bzr merge $URL"; it'll remember the first URL
you merge from, and "bzr merge" will merge from it again.  Use "bzr
merge --remember $URL" if you want to change the memorized merge
location.

  I don't know.
