Chad,
As it turns out, bazaar-vcs.org is a bit out of date, but the folks at
#bzr were indeed very helpful.
It turns out to be very easy to do what I wanted. It works like this
with bzr 0.7, for anyone else who wants to try this out:
Say I'm trying to import a local directory, myprojects/, into bzr. It
works something like this, if my projects are in the current directory:
bzr init myprojects
cd myprojects
bzr add .
bzr commit -m 'I just added myprojects to bzr'
Once that's done, the branch exists, and I can branch it off to wherever
my web server wants me to put my files.
The conceptual problem for me was there isn't a repository path like cvs
or svn has on init, since, well, there's no repository. The working
directory *is* the repository. Weird for somebody like me that grew up
on CVS.
Thanks for you help; I'm going to try using this for a while, and see
how it works for me.
