Ubuntu Installation Guide (18.04) contribution

[Christophe Dumont]

Hi Frank,

Thks for your answer !
I followed the installation guide  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/
DocumentationTeam/SystemDocumentation/UbuntuInstallationGuide,
downloaded this branch : *bzr branch
lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/installation-guide/ubuntu/ changed-supported-hw*
copied the en direcotry : *sudo cp -R en/ fr*
and then build the fr directory : *./build/buildone.sh amd64 fr "html pdf"*
I translated a section of the installation-howto page : *sudo vi*
*fr/howto/installation-howto.xml*
Rebuilt : *./build/buildone.sh s390x fr html*
I see the changes when i load index.html with firefox, but the command bzr
commit exit with this :
*bzr commit -m "Traduction Page Annexe A. Guide d'installation"*
*Committing to: /home/chris/changed-supported-hw/*
*bzr: ERROR: No changes to commit. Please 'bzr add' the files you want to
commit, or use --unchanged to force an empty commit.*

I don't know what's wrong !
