First, change directory if you want docs branch be downloaded inside it:
cd mybzrdir
To get current version of the docs branch, type:
bzr branch sftp://mymemberpseudoonsavannah@bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/srv/bzr/gnewsense/docs
or
bzr branch http://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/r/gnewsense/docs
for anonymous access.
Edit docs branch locally
Example:
mkdir -pv docs/doc-rejected-by-debian/gnu/automake/automake-1.10.1 cp automake.info docs/doc-rejected-by-debian/gnu/automake/automake-1.10.1/
Commit changes
For Bazaar to be aware that changes have been made, run:
bzr add
Then, to commit changes:
bzr commit -m "Added automake 1.10.1 info file." --create-prefix sftp://mymemberpseudoonsavannah@bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/srv/bzr/gnewsense/docs
If it is not the first time you commit changes, you may instead have to run:
bzr commit -m "Added automake 1.10.1 info file."

bzr push
