Ah, okay.  Well Git can definitely manage this.  Just means you have to
rebase any local changes before pushing.  This will keep the history
linear and make sure that no merges are needed in the case you were asking
about.

So far, it sounds to me like bazaar and git are more alike than they are
different.  Each have a few commands the other doesn't but all in all
they sound very similar.  But i'm a Git fanboy so I aint switching
now ;o)
