Using The Bazaar Version Control System (VCS) On Debian Etch - Page 2

Now let's publish the project to our server (using SFTP):
bzr push --create-prefix sftp://[email protected]/~/public_html/myproject
falko@server1:~/myproject$ bzr push --create-prefix sftp://[email protected]/~/public_html/myproject
The authenticity of host '192.168.0.101 (192.168.0.101)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 68:fc:30:ab:b1:e0:8d:6b:46:0b:08:cf:a6:34:b3:a1.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? <-- yes
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.0.101' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
[email protected]'s password: <-- enter the user's password
2 revision(s) pushed.
falko@server1:~/myproject$
After you have published the project, you can delete your working copy (if you want - you can as well leave it as it is):
cd ~
rm -fr myproject/
Now anyone can download a copy of your branch. To test this, we create the directory test/ and download a copy of the branch to it:
cd ~
mkdir test/
cd test/
bzr branch http://192.168.0.101/myproject
falko@server1:~/test$ bzr branch http://192.168.0.101/myproject
Branched 2 revision(s).
falko@server1:~/test$
While you're working on your copy, it's possible that other people commit their changes to the server. To merge these changes into your working copy, run
cd myproject/
bzr merge
In my case no changes have to be merged:
falko@server1:~/test/myproject$ bzr merge
Merging from remembered location http://192.168.0.101/myproject/
Nothing to do.
falko@server1:~/test/myproject$
To check what exactly has changed, run
bzr diff
Now you can change your working copy, e.g.:
vi test1.txt
some text... bla |
Take a look at the changes:
bzr diff
falko@server1:~/test/myproject$ bzr diff
=== modified file 'test1.txt'
--- test1.txt 2007-12-19 15:22:52 +0000
+++ test1.txt 2007-12-19 15:41:37 +0000
@@ -1,1 +1,2 @@
some text...
+bla
falko@server1:~/test/myproject$
When you're finished, commit your changes:
bzr commit -m "Some changes"
falko@server1:~/test/myproject$ bzr commit -m "Some changes"
modified test1.txt
Committed revision 3.
falko@server1:~/test/myproject$
Afterwards, upload the changes to the server:
bzr push --create-prefix sftp://[email protected]/~/public_html/myproject
Afterwards, you can (if you like) delete your working copy again.
To find out what else you can do with Bazaar, take a look at
