Push to both a bzr and a SVN

[Erik Bågfors]

I would do this

cd $SVNPATH
cp -r $BZRPATH/.bzr .
svn co -r 1
bzr ci -m 'whatever message revision 1 had'
svn co -r 2
bzr ci -m 'whatever message revision 2 had'

etc.

Once you have done that you should have a nice bzr branch with all svn commits.

Not you junk the svn repo, and create a new using bzr-svn, and using
push to push your bzr branch there.  This way, you should have a svn
branch that has all the properties correct to be able to just check
out of svn using bzr-svn.

Regards,
Erik
