bzr status and commit strange behaviour

[Stefano Spinucci]

On Windows 2000, using the unofficial binary provided by Alexander
Belchenko (https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/bazaar/2007q1/023474.html),
working on a network share, I encountered the following problem:

- bzr status --> showed a file to commit
- bzr commit --> don't commit the file, and  created an empty commit
- bzr status --> showed again the same file to commit
- bzr commit --> don't commit the file, and  created another empty commit
- ...changing the file...
- bzr status --> showed a file to commit
- bzr commit --> commited the file
- bzr status --> showed no file to commit
- bzr commit --> failed because there was nothing to commit

Any hint for this strange behaviour (a modified file not committed and
an empty commit created)???
Maybe reopening, saving again and closing the file (an excel
spreadsheet) I removed some strange/subtle lock on the file letting
the commit to succeed???


PS
bazaar rocks, really...
