bazaar with encfs on NFS

[Henry Gomersall]

I'm intending to use bazaar with a encfs mounted, locally mounted NFS
filesystem. That is I have a remote and encrypted (with encfs) NFS
drive. I mount that locally, and then decrypt it locally using encfs. It
is this decrypted drive that is a bazaar repository.

Are there any caveats that I should be aware of in doing this?

Although at the moment I have only one user accessing the repository,
the intention is that it should scale to multiple users. As far as I can
tell, bazaar should not change its operation based on the fact that its
encrypted or over NFS (assuming the syncing is done adequately).

Is there any obvious way to back up the encrypted store? (perhaps the
lock file can be cleartext?).

The rationale behind all this is that the NFS server is on an untrusted
machine.

Many thanks,
