.bzr.log should be in localappdata directory on Windows, not in Documents

[piersh]

the .bzr.log file should NOT be placed in the user's Documents directory.

this file should be placed in the %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Bazaar\ directory (FOLDERID_LocalAppData). please see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb762188(v=vs.85).aspx

You can change location of .bzr.log with BZR_LOG environment variable,
setting the full path to file including filename.

i'm glad there's a way to change the default. however, the default should NOT be in the users's documents directory. that directory is specifically reserved for files that the user explicitly chooses to store there and should not be used as an application's temporary scratch space. either use TEMP, or AppData by default, please.

oh, actually. i take it back.

setting the BZR_LOG environment variable does NOT change the location of the log file written by tbzrcache.exe.

Setting the BZR_LOG environment variable DOES change the location of the log file written by tbzrcache.exe based on observations with Bazaar 2.5.1 on Windows XP. See Bug #240550 comments for a more detailed response.
