If you don't have write privileges on bzr.openpetra.org you can also commit to launchpad.
We are not using Bazaar anymore, but Git.
This can be done the following way:
 
* First get an account on Launchpad, which is a service provided by the company Canonical, who develop Ubuntu and Bazaar: https://login.launchpad.net/+new_account
* Create a public and private key on launchpad. This is explained [https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/CreatingAnSSHKeyPair here]. It is quite important to execute pageant and to load the private key into pageant.
 
* In your bazaar, you need to tell your launchpad username, on the command line run <code>bzr launchpad-login USERNAME</code>. You can do this in the GUI as well, in the menu Bazaar / All Commands / category Launchpad, Command launchpad-login, and enter your launchpad id as the parameter.
 
* then go to https://code.launchpad.net/openpetraorg/+addbranch to create a new branch. It will have the url <code>lp:~USERNAME/openpetraorg/BRANCH_NAME</code>
 
* Do a checkout now from that url <code>lp:~USERNAME/openpetraorg/BRANCH_NAME</code>
 
* Now you can add files and change existing files, and commit them to your branch at Launchpad.
 
* If you want to get the latest version from OpenPetra, do a merge from <code>http://bzr.openpetra.org:8008/openpetra/trunk</code> (or <code>http://bzr.openpetra.org:8008/website/trunk</code> if you are working on the website)
 
* If you want your changes to be merged into the OpenPetra bzr, tell a core developer the URL of your branch. It is recommended to have small branches for each feature that you want to go upstream. You will not be able to reuse a branch, after it has been merged into openpetra trunk, since we want to avoid criss cross merges etc.
 
If you get an unlock error-message execute a
  bzr break-lock bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jomammele/openpetraorg/website-spanish/
