For DVC, we currently have no python code. We might end up forcing the
user to install a plugin to use DVC, but for now, this is only
Emacs-lisp code, and calls to bzr as external process.

Given the startup time of bzr today, simple operations are preferably
rewriten in elisp, so if I need to add a pattern to the user default
ignore list, I'll just do it in lisp.
