BZR: Push and Update

You always assume that the tools you use on a daily basis are the best for the job. There comes a point when you realize that there could be more… I had one of those moments today.

I was hacking on some code and thought, it would be great if when I commit and pushed my changes back to the main branch, that it also updated the branch with the latest changes.

Enter “bzr-push-and-update“.

To get the tool working, I branched the copy from Launchpad, renamed the directory, and put it into my <python_location>/site-packages/bzrlib/plugins directory and it worked. No hitches or anything.

It’s great when awesome tools can be easily enhanced. :)
