OK, thanks for the explanations.

I'm not annoyed by that message.  Bazaar already displays all kinds of
seemingly redundant information when it commits.  I just noticed the
difference, that's all.  So I don't see a need to remove that
particular message.

Btw, there couldn't have been any need to update the tags in my
scenario (there were no local changes except the one I was committing,
and no prior --local commits).  But I guess bzr just announces that it
is going through the tag merging phase, not that it actually found
some divergent tags.

Thanks.
