Yeah, I didn't notice that until people started talking about bzr log
and I realized that it wasn't showing the merge information.

If someone knows how the folks that made the git repository did this
maybe I could work something out.  Or possibly I could take another
whack at creating a bzr repository from the git repository instead of
from CVS.

Alternatively, I could experiment with creating a bzr repository from
arch.  Where are those branches located?

I've certainly got some things I can try.
