R: Revision-id of the bazaar version

[kreijack at alice.it]

Hi all,

I understand the point: the stables releases can diverge from the devel releases. 
In general they are different branches. And the branch can happen before the release of the ufficial revision.

Ok, but I think that it should be an official repository with the stable branches, and a list of the revision-id(s) for every version.

Well, these can't be the official revision ids, because *most* of the
actual releases were not merged back into the mainline.

Robert has explicitly asked for this, because it prevents you from
accidentally doing a pull overtop of the released branch. As an example:

 A
 |
 B
 |\
 C E - release-0.8
 |
 D
 |
 F
 |\
 G H - release-0.9

etc.

The problem is that if you do:

 F
 |\
 G H
 |/
 I

Then if you are sitting at 'H' and accidentally do 'bzr pull', it will
give you I, which is *not* on the release branch.

Personally, I could see going either way. I like the concept that if I
pull bzr.dev, I get all of the history, even for releases. This is also
a place were I think tags would make sense. (tags such that they
propagate with the branch, but are difficult to change).

I maintain a mirror for all of the released versions that I've found.
Which doesn't contain some of the older ones. Most of these can also be
found on http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/

bzr.0.0.5 mbp at sourcefrog.net-20050615060316-97b948fb1eade31f
bzr.0.1   mbp at sourcefrog.net-20051013032322-dc469f4b81f8e7f9
bzr.0.6   mbp at sourcefrog.net-20051028055627-b80f0d7d43d07407
bzr-0.7-fixes mbp at sourcefrog.net-20060120051910-199f6d5e9d1e5c6d
bzr.0.8   pqm at pqm.ubuntu.com-20060517071027-58ef74796b918716
bzr.0.9   pqm at pqm.ubuntu.com-20060811102108-06a24f3a1d4e7d82
bzr.0.10  pqm at pqm.ubuntu.com-20060904005919-d595cc974f859400
bzr.0.11  pqm at pqm.ubuntu.com-20061001233254-c3a627b7c1390697

Now, I personally merged the 0.10 branch back into bzr.dev, but I don't
believe the other ones have been merged.

My mirrors are available from:
http://bzr.arbash-meinel.com/mirrors/bzr/releases/

(I think I tweezed out bzr.0.0.5 and some of the others by looking
through commit logs and seeing 'prepare 0.X release'. So they may not be
100% accurate)
