Mmm, I was a bit "afraid" as I had no idea how to do this...
But I admit it is dead simple and well explained in the site, leading 
quickly to the http://bazaar-vcs.org/BzrGivingBack page.

Might I suggest to improve the page by explaining how to get only the 
tip of bzr.dev? People with limited disk space (like me) or slow 
connection might want to reduce the downloaded data and anyway are 
probably not interested by the full history of the software, to do a 
quick fix.
I found out how to do this on some Internet page (and as I type, I just 
forgot the procedure...) but it might be better to document this 
explicitly there.

Note: the above page have a strange last paragraph ("Docutils System 
Messages"...).

Note also the ~/ notation is quite Unix-specific, it might trip pure 
Windows users...

 > bzr send -o ~/DocoChanges.patch
Using saved parent location "http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/" to 
determine what changes to submit.
Bundling 1 revision(s).
bzr: ERROR: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'~/DocChanges.patch'

while bzr send -o DocoChanges.patch works well, of course.
