Bazaar version control, commit messages

I use Bazaar for version control with the team I wrote code with. This team likes Bazaar so much that we even use it for Latex documents in which we are writing up papers. Today when I went to commit changes I got an error about my commit message being empty even though I hadn't had any time to edit it yet! I learned a work around:

bzr commit -m "Type message here"

alternatively, this should work if you have a saved text file of the commit message:

bzr commit -F commitmessage.txt
