Also, for PQM friendliness the integration branch is now not part of the
repository - it has its own knits .bzr/repository to let me submit to
pqm :).

This is done. I ran into a weird issue when upgrading. It failed to find
'mbp at sourcefrog.net-20050727131128-4a410b425aa93add' in 'bzr.py...'.
doing a 'pack_repo.fetch(knits_repo)' also failed.

Doing
for head in heads:
   pack_repo.fetch(knits_repo, revision_id=head)

worked ?!

And the resulting inventory count was the same in the source and target;
as was the revision count.

I haven't tracked this down yet.

Doing that straight after this email.

The first item of pain is the indices. Pushing a single commit takes 5
minutes because the entire index for all texts (4.5MB) is being read.

So it looks like fixing that is my first priority.

If you want to see what a live pack based repo looks like, browse to
http://people.ubuntu.com/~robertc/baz2.0/.bzr/repository

Of interest may be:
the packs dir containing packs
the indices dir containing the indices for each pack
the obsolete_packs dir which contains packs that have been superceded by
pack operations.
