+	      Building and Installing Emacs from Bazaar
+
+If this is the first time you go through it, you'll need to configure
+before bootstrapping:
+
+  $ ./configure
+
+Some of the files that are included in the Emacs tarball, such as
+byte-compiled Lisp files, are not stored in Bazaar.  Therefore, to
+build from Bazaar you must run "make bootstrap" instead of just "make":
+
+  $ cvs update -dP
+  $ make bootstrap
+
+Normally, it is not necessary to use "make bootstrap" after every
+update from Bazaar.  "make" should work in 90% of the cases and be
+much quicker.
+
+  $ make
+
+(If you want to install the Emacs binary, type "make install" instead
+of "make" in the last command.)
+
+Occasionally the file "lisp/loaddefs.el" (and similar automatically
+generated files, such as esh-groups.el, and *-loaddefs.el in some
+subdirectories of lisp/, e.g. mh-e/ and calendar/) will need to be
+updated to reflect new autoloaded functions.  If you see errors (rather
+than warnings) about undefined lisp functions during compilation, that
+may be the reason.  Another symptom may be an error saying that
+"loaddefs.el" could not be found; this is due to a change in the way
+loaddefs.el was handled in version control, and should only happen
+once, for users that are updating old sources.  Finally, sometimes
+there can be build failures related to *loaddefs.el (e.g. "required
+feature `esh-groups' was not provided").  In that case, follow the
+instructions below.
+
+To update loaddefs.el (and similar files), do:
+
+  $ cd lisp
+  $ make autoloads
+
+If either of the above partial procedures fails, try "make bootstrap".
+If CPU time is not an issue, the most thorough way to rebuild, and
+avoid any spurious problems, is always to use this method.
+
+Users of non-Posix systems (MS-Windows etc.) should run the
+platform-specific configuration scripts (nt/configure.bat, config.bat,
+etc.) before "make bootstrap" or "make"; the rest of the procedure is
+applicable to those systems as well.
+
+Questions, requests, and bug reports about the Bazaar versions of Emacs
+should be sent to emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org rather than gnu.emacs.help
+or gnu.emacs.bug.  Ideally, use M-x report-emacs-bug RET which will
+send it to the proper place.
+
+Because the Bazaar version of Emacs is a work in progress, it will
+sometimes fail to build.  Please wait a day or so (and check the bug
+and development mailing list archives) before reporting such problems.
+In most cases, the problem is known about and is just waiting for
+someone to fix it.
+
+
+Note on accessing the Bazaar repository
+---------------------------------------
+
+Write access to the Bazaar repository is currently done via Bazaar's
+sftp:// protocol; see http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/BzrForEmacsDevs.
+We plan to offer bzr+ssh:// access later.  More discussion about that
+is at https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?107077.

-
-Note on using SSH to access the CVS repository from inside Emacs
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Write access to the CVS repository requires using SSH v2.
-
-If you execute cvs commands inside Emacs, specifically if you use
-pcl-cvs, output from CVS may be lost due to a problem in the
-interface between ssh, cvs, and libc.  Corrupted checkins are
-also known to have happened.
-
-To fix the problem, save the following script into a file, make it
-executable, and set CVS_RSH to the file name of the script:
-
-#!/bin/bash
-exec 2> >(exec cat >&2 2>/dev/null)
-exec ssh "$@"
-
-This may be combined with the following entry in ~/.ssh/config to
-simplify accessing the CVS repository:
-
-Host subversions.gnu.org
-     Protocol 2
-     ForwardX11 no
-     User YOUR_USERID
