bzr-externals

bzr-externals plugin offers external branches support for Bazaar.

Supports external branches without additional commands. Works from any client: bzr, QBzr, TortoiseBzr or Bazaar Explorer.

To use external branch please add to '.bzrexternals' file line of the following format:  bzr://server/project directory [revision]

Examples:

 bzr://bzr.server/my.project/trunk my.project
 http://svn.server/libs/trunk/my.lib libs/my.lib revno:100
