IntroductionBazaar is a modern, distributed version control system. As of this writing, there are no Bazaar add-in packages that provide integration with Visual Studio.

During the installation, you will be offered the options of which add-ins, languages and options you wish to install. You can skip languages you do not speak, but you should install everything else. If you do not install TortoiseBzr, this How-to will provide unsatisfying results.

When we configure the Status command, an example will be provided that demonstrates how this can be done for other commands, but with similar output results. Read more: Codeproject
