You can host a Bazaar branch for any project that is registered in Launchpad.

Before you start: you must have registered an SSH key in your Launchpad account. To register a key, visit http://launchpad.net/people/+me/+editsshkeys

Pushing your branch

To create your branch, use bzr push.

The push location should be of the form:

login is your Launchpad account name (or Launchpad ID): the last part of the URL of your Launchpad profile page. Launchpad uses it to check the SSH key you are authenticating with.
registrant is your Launchpad person name, or the name of a team you belong to. Use a team name to create a branch to which other members of that team can upload.
project is the name of the Launchpad project to register this branch on. The uploaded branch will appear in the listings for this project.
branch must be unique for a given registrant and project, and should describe the sort of change being done in that branch. For instance, "rework-decorator-API", or "fix-bug-42123", or "improve-timeout-warning".

Using Bazaar with Launchpad is explained in more detail on FeatureHighlights/EasyBranching.

Setting up and using team branches to allow multiple people to commit to a single branch is explained on FeatureHighlights/TeamBranches.
