bazaar setup question - remote scenario
Let me first describe our scenario:
+Distributed dev team of 6 devs in US and China.
+Central branch stored on computer in US
+Relatively high network latency between US and China
+Windows development environment
The way we work is that a dev does a change and when finished commits locally and pushes to server in US. After that dev logs into server in US via terminal services (this is a windows server 2003) and does a "bzr update", so that when other devs do a bzr pull, they see the change.
It also was cumbersome for China devs due to network latency and also it is easy to forget. So we did a small service running on server that does every minute a "bzr update".
Somehow the need to run bzr update on the server seems wrong. They ought to be a better way.
Questions:
+Is there a better way?
+Why is bzr update required when pushing to a remote branch? Can't bazaar not be smart enough and do the bzr update when there is no merge conflict?
