In terms of design, it would be nice to match the web site:
Headers like "initialization" text would be white with a blue
background.  Also, the logo should be on there, and it would be nice to
use the same font at least for "Bazaar Quick Reference".

In terms of content, please remove "changeset" from "concepts".  Bazaar
doesn't deal in changesets.

Revision would be better described as "a version of the source code that
has been committed".  (Revision is not an identifier, it is the thing
itself.  You may be thinking of a revision-id.)

I think "merging" can be simplified as "Applying the changes introduced
by one branch to another".  (Only the default case of merging requires
branches to be related.)

I don't know why your example of "pulling changes from a parent"
specifies "../myproject".  If you're pulling changes from the parent,
you don't need to specify anything.

"auto-resolve conflicts" is probably better as "auto-detect resolved
conflicts".
