QBzr - Qt-based front end for Bazaar ####################################

QBzr is a cross platform, Qt-based front-end for Bazaar, providing GUI applications for many core bzr commands. In addition, it provides several special dialogs and helper commands. Equivalents for core bzr commands have the same names as CLI commands but with a prefix of "q".

Requirements

Compatibility between qbzr and bzr versions

  • QBzr 0.23 is targeted to bzr 2.6 and compatible with bzr 2.5. It may not work with older versions of bzr.

  • QBzr 0.22 is targeted to bzr 2.5 and compatible with bzr 2.4 It may not work with older versions of bzr.

  • QBzr 0.21 is targeted to bzr 2.4 and compatible with bzr 2.3. It may not work with older versions of bzr.

  • QBzr 0.20 is targeted to bzr 2.3 and compatible with bzr 2.2. It may not work with older versions of bzr.

  • QBzr 0.19 required bzr 2.2 and compatible with bzr 2.1. It may not work with older versions of bzr.

  • QBzr 0.18.x required bzr 2.1.x. Some commands/dialogs are working with bzr 1.17, 1.18.x, 2.0.x. It may work with bzr 2.2 or later, but this is not guaranteed.

  • QBzr 0.14.x compatible with bzr 1.17, 1.18.x, 2.0.x.

Interface localization

QBzr uses gettext library for i18n support. Available translations resides in po/ subdirectory of the tree. QBzr expects to load binary mo-files from locale/ subdirectory of the tree.

To generate translation POT-template file you need to run command:

python setup.py build_pot

All existing PO-files will be updated as well.

To compile translations to binary mo-files you need to run command:

python setup.py build_mo

NOTE: windows installer ships with latest compiled translation inside.

Help translate

You can help to translate QBzr interface to other languages.

You can use either Launchpad trnaslations interface (it's preferable way) see https://translations.launchpad.net/qbzr, or you can translate it offline, see instructions below.

First at all you need to download from http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~qbzr-dev/qbzr/trunk/files either po/qbzr-XX.po (where XX is your language and country code) or po/qbzr.pot if there is no po-file for your language yet.

Then you need to translate it either using any suitable text editor with UTF-8 support or with tools like Poedit (http://www.poedit.net/) or KBabel (http://kbabel.kde.org/).

When you're finish please file a bug report at https://launchpad.net/qbzr/+filebug and attach the translated file.

Language and country codes listed in gettext manual:

Configuration

The configuration is in .bazaar/qbzr.conf.

qlog_replace

Multiline value containing regular expressions to replace text in commit messages (useful to make clickable links to bug reports, ...). Can be used for example by adding:

qlog_replace='''#(\d+) #\1'''

to project/.bzr/branch/branch.conf.

diff_show_intergroup_colors

Boolean value to allow painting interline changes in different colors depend on the kind of change. Use values 'True' or '1' to enable option.
