 ** Bazaar stuff
 
 *** You can use `bzr commit --fixes debbugs:123' to mark that a commit fixes
-Emacs bug 123.  You will first need to add a line to your bazaar.conf:
+Emacs bug 123.  You will first need to add a line to your ~/bazaar.conf
+or ~/locations.conf:
 
 bugtracker_debbugs_url = http://debbugs.gnu.org/{id}
 
+Here "{id}" is a literal string, a placeholder that will be replaced
+by the bug number you specify after `--fixes debbugs:' in the bzr
+command line (123 in the example above).
+
+In the bazaar.conf file, this setting should go into the [DEFAULTS]
+section.
+
+In the locations.conf file, it should go into the branch-specific
+configuration section for the branch where you want this to be in
+effect.  For example, if you want this to be in effect for the branch
+located at `/home/projects/emacs/trunk', you need to have this in your
+~/locations.conf file:
+
+[/home/projects/emacs/trunk]
+bugtracker_debbugs_url = http://debbugs.gnu.org/{id}
+
+If you want to use this in all Emacs branches whose common parent is
+`/home/projects/emacs', put the setting in the [/home/projects/emacs]
+section.  See "bzr help configuration" for more information about
+the *.conf files, their location and formats.  See "bzr help bugs" for
+more information about the bugtracker_debbugs_url setting.

 Note that all this does is add some metadata to the commit, it doesn't
