I do most development from within emacs, and I use bzr for version control. I infer that c-x v = is equivalent to bzr diff, but it is not clear to me how I can make commits from within emacs, or how various bzr commands map to emacs key bindings. Can anyone suggest the best approach or point me to a tutorial?
A:
Looks like the DVC mode is what you're after. Sorry, I haven't used it, so I can't tell you anything about it.

C-x v v, or vc-next-action. Take a look at the VC section in the emacs manual

Bazaar bzr command is one of the backend tool managed by VC. Thus you can use all your VC commands to use the bzr backend :
C-x v + vc-update
C-x v = ediff-revision
C-x v D vc-root-diff
C-x v L vc-print-root-log
C-x v a vc-update-change-log
C-x v b vc-switch-backend
C-x v c vc-rollback
C-x v d vc-dir
C-x v g vc-annotate
C-x v h vc-insert-headers
C-x v i vc-register
C-x v l vc-print-log
C-x v m vc-merge
C-x v r vc-retrieve-tag
C-x v s vc-create-tag
C-x v u vc-revert
C-x v v vc-next-action
C-x v ~ vc-revision-other-window
I've configured C-x v = to call ediff-revision using the following command in my .emacs :
(eval-after-load "vc-hooks"
'(define-key vc-prefix-map "=" 'ediff-revision))

@Jérôme: Thanks for the list of VC commands. Is the list something that emacs can generate (with a simple command) or did you have to build it by hand?

C-h b to list all keybindings of the current mode of the buffer you're currently in.

@Jérôme: I can't believe how long I've gone without knowing this. Thank you.
