config-manager uses bzrlib, however at the moment you have to choose
between all the parts of the config being in bzr or mixing n' matching
between CVS, Subversion and Arch (but not bzr).

That is pending some changes and should be fixed shortly.

There is also 'commit-tool', in Debian like config-manager that supports
commiting to whatever SCM the various parts of the tree happen to be in.

Unfortunately it does not support bzr at the moment.
