Just to clarify: .bzrignore only affects add(*) and has no effect on
commit.  So if you ignore everything you will need to add all files
manually, but commit will still commit every file you have previously
added.

(*) I'm slightly lying, it also affects status and other commands that
tell you about unknown files, plus utilities like clean-tree.
