Unless I miss my guess, you pointed a lightweight checkout at itself. It
is hard to say for sure, since I don't know how you replaced strings.

If it was just how you replaced the strings, then point your local
(lightweight) checkout at the original branch.

As an example you seem to have:

C:\mywork\.bzr\branch\location => file:///C:/mywork

But I would hope that you would at least have:

C:\mywork\.bzr\branch\location => file:///M:/sharedwork

But M:\sharedwork is actually a heavy checkout of M:\repo\sharedwork

So you need to change

C:\mywork\.bzr\branch\location => file:///M:/repo/sharedwork.

I hope that is more helpful than confusing.
