Thank you, Matthew. Still flailing here though.

Made minor changes to kubuntu-docs/docs/about/C/about.xml

In kubuntu-docs directory:
bzr update:
    Tree is up to date at revision 134.

bzr status:
    modified:
      docs/about/C/about.xml
      docs/netbook/C/netbook.xml

bzr commit -m "2 minor changes to about.xml to try bzr commit and push
suggestions from Matthew East"
    bzr: ERROR: Cannot lock
LockDir(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/kubuntu-docs/lucid/.bzr/branch/lock):
Transport operation not possible: http does not support mkdir()

bzr push lp:~carlsymons/kubuntu-docs/lucid
    bzr: ERROR: Working tree "/home/carl/Documents/kubuntu-docs/" has
uncommitted changes (See bzr status). Use --no-strict to force the
push.

bzr push lp:~carlsymons/kubuntu-docs/lucid --no-strict AND ...push
--no-strict...
    Enter passphrase for key '/home/carl/.ssh/id_rsa':

    bzr: ERROR: Cannot lock
LockDir(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/kubuntu-docs/lucid/.bzr/branch/lock):
Transport operation not possible: http does not support mkdir()

No surprise that the changes do not show up in
~carlsymons/kubuntu-docs/lucid : /docs/about/C/about.xml

I appreciate your assistance. It seems like some minor thing I'm not
doing properly. I just don't see what it is.
