I'm happy to stick up a hand for bazaar - my workplace uses it heavily, and I'm quite a fan of it.
Right now it's in a good state, and I use the 3-way merge on conflict functionality regularly (navigating my work's VC trees can be spiderwebby sometimes :\ ) I did just poke my head in to bugzilla and there's nothing specifically referencing bazaar itself - is there anything in particular outstanding? -- Louis On 18 May 2013 10:41, Kai Willadsen <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Meld supports a wide range of version control systems, which is great > [0].
