Hi everyone,
first let me thank you for 1.16+ and the new repo format 2a. Bzr feels a
lot more speedy these days. Kudos to the developers!
I stumbled across minor issues though:
1) bzr in MacPorts is a outdated. I provided a patch for 1.16 some days
ago but now that 1.16.1 is out this patch has become outdated already :)
2) After installing it myself I tried to convert a git repo to bzr with
fastimport. The first attempt failed because branch_updater.py crashed. On
my box the issue was that line 92 uses osutils, but line 21 doesn't import
it? So my fix was to change line 21 to:
from bzrlib import bzrdir, errors, osutils
3) I tried to import my git repo into a shared bzr repo using the new 2a
format. The good thing was that fastimport imported all my git branches
into different repos inside my shared repo. On the downside the format of
each repo was "unnamed". Shouldn't it be 2a? Unfortunately there's no way
to tell fastimport which format to use for each repo either. Or maybe
these are 2a repos but "unnamed" is just a bit confusing?
Cheers,
Lars
