Emacs uses Bazaar as its official VCS, but there is a git
mirror. Current bzr Emacs history was taken from that mirror, which was
a CVS mirror before (the route for the conversion was cvs -> git ->
bzr). The git mirror is just hours behind the official bzr branch and it
actually has more history, because it includes all previous branches
that existed on CVS, while Emacs `trunk' is just one branch.

The official Emacs `trunk' is on

http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/emacs/trunk

There is a mirror on Launchpad if you want to compare using the
`bzr+ssh' protocol: lp:emacs

Finally, the git mirror is here:

git clone git://repo.or.cz/emacs.git
