Hi,

'bzr dump-btree' will print out the index of the file (give it eg an
.iix. file).  To get individual records from it you probably need to
start a Python shell, and say something like Repository.open(path)
then call methods on repo.pack_collection.  A plugin that printed
information on which revisions or objects used space inside the pack
would be cool but doesn't currently exist.
