What is the difference between bzr and git?

Asked by Samuel Bronson

I'm wondering how the bzr repository model differs from that of git. (Shouldn't this be in http://bazaar-vcs.org/FAQ ?)

I know that the git repository model boils down to a DAG (directed acyclic graph) of commits (each consisting of a file tree coupled with a description, author, committer, date, etc.), where all out-edges (parents) of a commit are determined at commit creation time.

Is there a similar description of the bzr model, and if not, what makes bzr's model more complicated? (Note: I am a darcs fan, and therefore do not mean to imply that having a more complicated model is necessarily bad.)
