GNU Bazaar (formerly Bazaar-NG, command line tool bzr) is a distributed and client–server revision control system sponsored by Canonical.

Bazaar can be used by a single developer working on multiple branches of local content, or by teams collaborating across a network.

Bazaar is written in the Python programming language, with packages for major Linux distributions, Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows. Bazaar is free software and in 2008 became part of the GNU Project.{{cite mailing list |last = Pool |first = Martin |title = Bazaar is now a GNU project |mailing-list = bazaar-announce |date = 2008-02-26 |url = https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/bazaar-announce/2008-February/000135.html |access-date = 2008-05-23 |archive-date = 13 April 2016 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160413224555/https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/bazaar-announce/2008-February/000135.html |url-status = live |url=http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2008-05/msg00012.html |title=Bazaar becomes a GNU project |last=Pool |first=Martin |date=2008-05-21 |mailing-list=info-gnu |access-date=2008-05-23 |archive-date=3 March 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303183231/http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2008-05/msg00012.html |url-status=live
