I'm working on a project, and I want to see how it ran in its last revision. How do I do it without losing my changes?

Question

Specifically, I'm using bzr, but tips for any VCS are welcome.

Answer 1

I think there are three options.

1. Use shelving

   bzr shelve --all
bzr unshelve

2. Create a separate branch with the latest

3. Create a patch of you changes and revert the changes. Apply patch when you need your changes back.
