[ANNOUNCE] bzr-git 0.1.0

[Jelmer Vernooij]

I'm happy to announce the first release of bzr-git, 0.1.0. bzr-git 
allows using bzr against repositories from the git version control 
system. This release should not be considered ready for any 
production-type work; it *should* be safe, but hasn't been widely tested 
yet.

The following commands should work directly on local Git repositories:

 * branch
 * pull
 * log
 * tags
 * info
 * dpush (if you have my dpush patch or bzr-svn installed)

It should be possible to branch/pull remote git repositories, but any 
other operations against remote repositories will not work, because of 
the limitations of the git smart server.

bzr-git also adds a new bzr subcommand "git-import" that can be used to 
import all branches in a Git repository.

Known issues:

 * All Git objects are loaded into memory during fetch at the moment; 
cloning large repositories will not work

 * bzr-git currently only works with bzr 1.13, not with bzr.dev
 
 * there is no way to address non-HEAD branches yet

 * the git index can't be used yet

It can be downloaded from:

 * http://samba.org/~jelmer/bzr/bzr-git-0.1.0.tar.gz

A GPG signature made with my key (1EEF5276) is available from:

 * http://samba.org/~jelmer/bzr/bzr-git-0.1.0.tar.gz.asc

You will also need to install the Dulwich python module, available from 
launchpad as well:

Please report any bugs in Launchpad:

I'd also like to thank everybody who has worked on bzr-git, directly or 
on Dulwich:

* David Allouche
* Aaron Bentley
* John Carr
* Robert Collins
* John Arbash Meinel
* Ali Sabil
* James Westby

Cheers,

Jelmer
