Please sync bzr 1.12-1 (main) from Debian experimental (main).

Changelog since current jaunty version 1.11-1:

bzr (1.12-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.

 -- Jelmer Vernooij <jelmer at debian.org>  Sat, 14 Feb 2009 00:24:06 +0100

bzr (1.12~rc1-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.

 -- Jelmer Vernooij <jelmer at debian.org>  Tue, 10 Feb 2009 21:45:04 +0100


The headline features are:
  This release of Bazaar contains many improvements to the speed, documentation
  and functionality of bzr log and the display of logged revisions by bzr
  status.  bzr now also gives a better indication of progress, both in the way
  operations are drawn onto a text terminal, and by showing the rate of network
  IO.

Upstream release notes:
http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/bzr.1.12/en/release-notes/NEWS.html

There are a few compatibility breaks in command-line output formats,
specifically:

  By default, bzr status after a merge now shows just the pending merge tip
  revisions. This improves the signal-to-noise ratio after merging from trunk
  and completes much faster. To see all merged revisions, use the new -v flag.
  (Ian Clatworthy)

  bzr log --line now shows any tags after the date and before the commit
  message. If you have scripts which parse the output from this command, you
  may need to adjust them accordingly. (Ian Clatworthy)

  bzr log --short now shows any additional revision properties after the date
  and before the commit message. Scripts that parse output of the log command
  in this situation may need to adjust. (Neil Martinsen-Burrell)


Ideally I'd assess all rdepends for whether they used stdout-parsing of bzr
commands before filing the sync request, but with feature freeze fast
approaching, I wanted to get it filed for consideration ASAP, since bugfixing
of anything that does parse the output can still occur after feature freeze.

** Affects: bzr (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
