Glad to hear.  That was my biggest beef with bzr when I tried it 
(c. 2008), so if they've got that working well, it's worth my 
time to revisit.  Do you have a reference for timing improvements 
against version number ("in version x.y, action Z took N ms; in 
version x.[y+1], action Z took N-M ms")?  I'm running Debian 
Stable and sometimes it takes a little while for these features 
to trickle down.  But I *hope* changes in 2009 would have made it 
in by now :)

Yeah, I've encountered that aspect of the abundant documentation 
on Git. :)

Thanks for giving me something to do this weekend. :)
