I want to go back in my bazaar history (change working tree) to find the commit that introduced a certain bug.

I do not want to delete any commits, just change my working tree until I found the bug, and then I want to go back to the latest revision to work on.

What are the two commands for that (going back to an earlier commit and afterwards checking out the latest revision again)?

Thanks in advance.

To revert the working tree back to a specific revision N:

bzr revert -rN

To revert the working tree to the latest revision in the branch:

bzr revert
