Sure if he commits locally, but he did a bzr update.

May be bzr unbind is appropriate here, I can't deduce the setup
used from the backtrace.

If update uses:

parent = remote1
master = remote1
branch = local1
working tree = local2

Then bzr unbind should be ok.

if it's:

parent = remote1
master = remote2
branch = local1
working tree = local2

then 'bzr bind sftp://remote2 or bzr+ssh://remote2' should do.

My last modification was about reusing the master transport, I
don't think I modified any other behavior by doing that.
