And so says Peter Amstutz:
> $ bzr init-repo bzrbug
> $ cd bzrbug/
> $ ls
> $ bzr init foo
> $ cd foo
> $ touch bar
> $ bzr add bar
> bzr: ERROR: No WorkingTree exists for
> /home/tetron/hack/mine/bzrbug/foo/.bzr/checkout/.
(09:36:56) lalo|work: well it's a bug, but in the documentation rather
than bzr :-P
(09:37:17) lalo|work: init-repo defaults to a cvs-style repository,
meaning no working trees
(09:37:30) lalo|work: use this instead: bzr init-repo --trees myrepo
(09:37:40) lalo|work: check bzr init-repo --help
(09:38:24) lalo|work: generally, although proper documentation is still
being worked on, the --help output is of very high quality and
will tell you whatever you need to know
(09:38:42) lalo|work: and so will shell completion if you use zsh
(09:38:49) tetron: the error reporting needs to improve
(09:39:39) lalo|work: I suppose. The error is telling you exactly what
bzr thinks is happenning :-P maybe a "this repository is set up
to not have working trees, try `bzr init-repo --help` would
be nice
(09:40:23) lalo|work: since I'm lazy and I have to do some actual work,
I'll just post this entire conversation rather than summarising
it.
best,
Lalo Martins
