Commit message

Add reference to configuration in 'bzr help env-variables'

Description of the change

I went 'bzr help env-variables' wanting to remember the BZR_PLUGINS_AT variable, but the help there was minimal, turns out that bzr help configuration is /much/ more helpful, so I've added a cross-reference sentence.

Could look at doing more, but this is a driveby make-it-a-little-better patch.

22+* ``bzr help env-variables`` now points users at ``bzr help configuration``
23+ which has much more detailed information on the same stuff.

26 * ``bzr lp-find-proposal`` now only cares about the revision-id that is
27 specified, not the branch you use. This was enabled by a new API call in
28 Launchpad's web service. (Aaron Bentley)
