Hierarchy overview of Bazaar Concepts

Hey,

I've skimmed through the FAQ and other questions already answered but haven't found what I'm looking for here nor at

http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/bzr.dev/en/.

What I basically need is an overview of the hierarchy of the concepts. I use subversion at the moment, due to 'human error' I already lost much of my history in the working copy/Repository. So I thought this could be a good starting point to switch the tool.

I guess I make it more complicated than it is, but I've, well skimmed ( I looked over most of it, read a bit here and there) through the docs but haven't found a guide that just tells me how to start versioning with bazaar, where the repo is remote and I have what in svn is called a local working copy. Or I'm just plain to stupid to understand it . . .

What do I need on the remote box? I'd guess that I first need to create a repository there, but what then? What I did with svn was to create the repo, then I did svn import. After that I locally check out. After that I was able to add new files to the repo and commit.

Or would just copying all related dirs to the remote box, say bzr init, bzr add . and the do there also a local checkout?

A rather confused Regards,
Phili
