It works well with the windows bzr executable but, unfortunately, this doesn't deal with symlinks which is important to me. So I tried cygwin instead. Unfortunately vc-bzr.el doesn't work with this failing with "No such file or program" errors. vc-svn and vc-cvs work fine with cygin. Cause: bzr is a python file. On cygwin it uses a magic #!/usr/bin/python line, which vc "start-process" doesn't work with. I tested this with following hack, which launches python and gives the location of bzr (under cygwin as it's cygwin python) as an argument. (defun vc-bzr-command (bzr-command buffer okstatus file-or-list &rest args) "Wrapper round `vc-do-command' using `vc-bzr-program' as COMMAND. Invoke the bzr command adding `BZR_PROGRESS_BAR=none' and `LC_MESSAGES=C' to the environment." (let ((process-environment (list* "BZR_PROGRESS_BAR=none" ; Suppress progress output (bzr >=0.9) "LC_MESSAGES=C" ; Force English output process-environment))) (apply 'vc-do-command (or buffer "*vc*") okstatus "python" file-or-list "/usr/bin/bzr" bzr-command args))) vc-bzr now works. Suggested Solution: My hack is platform specific. A better solution would be, to modify vc-bzr-command to be either of the form "bzr-program-name" or '("python name" "bzr name"). vc-bzr-command would need to be modified to cope. There is couple of other places vc-bzr-command is used which would need changing also. Thanks for your attention!

I don't think that the two contradict. Both would be possible. But, yes, a bzr.bat in cygwin would probably solve the problem. Stefan> After all, does Cygwin's bzr work with any other program Stefan> that's not part of Cygwin? I'd guess not, which is why I think Stefan> the problem is not specific to Emacs. This depends on how they launch bzr; for vc-bzr, for instance, if vc used an external shell-command instead of start-process it would work. Even if emacs was using dos as it's shell, I could reconfigure bzr-command to be "c:/cygwin/bin/python bzr"; unfortunately, you can't do this with start-process because the space is interpreted as part of the command name, and bzr not considered an argument. Given that the change I suggested is quite small, is there a problem with putting it in; I'm willing to send in a patch if you wish. It would also support the use case where one the user wishes to use a specific python to run bzr. It should be transparent to other users. In the meantime, if I can work out how to do it, I'll write to the cygwin packager and ask for a bzr.bat to be added to cygwin (having tested that it works). As you say, it would help to make it more usuable, irrespective of emacs.

Still, the batch file solution also works; as you say, it's works for other things also (DVC.el for instance!). I'll see whether I can get this into the cygwin package so that it just does the right thing. Thanks for your help!

Don't use a hack when you can use a clean solution. Stefan I tried cygwin, but the answer seems to be no. I understand why you don't want to amend vc-bzr; would it at least be possible to put a comment into "known bugs" or commentary, saying that it works with cygwin but needs a wrapper script? This would at least save people wishing to do this from having to hunt through the code? Thanks for your time; I'll stop mailing about this now.
