About the Author
Janos Gyerik is a Software Engineer living in Paris, France. He has been using
Bazaar since its early releases to manage his personal projects, some of which are
open source and available on Launchpad (https://launchpad.net/~janos-
gyerik). Janos is passionate about Bazaar, and although he embraces other version
control systems as well, he wouldn't miss a chance to uphold Bazaar's values over
competitive solutions. Janos spends most of his free time on various personal
projects, and he is always up to something, which you can read about on his blog
at http://janosgyerik.com/.
I would like to thank my wife for putting up with my late night
writing sessions. I also give deep thanks and gratitude to my brother,

support has helped me greatly in writing and improving the quality
of this book.
I also would like to thank the reviewers Yavor Nikolov, John Meinel,
and Alexander Belchenko for their criticism and support, it was a
real pleasure working together. Finally, I thank Packt Publishing for
this great opportunity.
