Hello,

I’m wondering how to best use Bazaar for personal version control of my Drupal installation. I'd like to version control the changes that I make to my configuration. A few questions: kinda basic :)

• Where do you initialize Bazaar? There seems to be Bazaar branch already in at the web root.
• Does it make sense to initialize at the server root? Which directories do you place in the Bazaar ignore file?
• What (which directories/files) should I use bzr to version control? Does it make sense to add the whole www directory for instance? I had a problem when committing my modules directory. It seemed to hang.
• What’s the best way to store my branches locally?

Thanks
