Using ‘bzr send’ will (by default) create a changeset and send it to a
specified email address. That changeset looks like a patch generated
by ‘diff -u’, but with extra stuff that Bazaar can understand.

Sending one to Roundup (or any email address, really) will simply
result in a file attachment that ‘patch’ will understand as a normal
‘diff -u’ patch file. Users that feed it to ‘bzr merge’, though, will
get extra functionality.
