not good to give your password to the world:

you better change it.

I get this message:

yes.
that is what the warning tries to tell you 'This transport does not update
the working tree'

I don't know why, but it also irritates me. (hey maybe I can fix it!)
what you can do though, is ssh to the server and do a
'bzr update'
this will update your working tree.
At this stage, my build tasks on the server automatically does a update
before building.
But I think in your situation you could even make a cron job to do this.

hope this helps
