Bug Description

The bzr documentation seems to be silent on how to actually launch an external merge tool when there are conflicts. The section on configuring external merge tools is here: http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/bzr.2.5/en/user-reference/configuration-help.html#external-merge-tools

However, it's completely unclear how to even launch the default merge tool. It seems that qbzr is required, and you launch it via qconflicts. It would be nice to have this spelled out in the External Merge Tools config section.
